Fun run chance for children
The free event is taking place in conjunction with the Leeds Half Marathon on Sunday, May 9. Mr Tomlinson, of the Jane Tomlinson Appeal, said: ”Jane’s wish was always to create a true ‘run for all’ to include everyone of all ages and abilities. We have the hugely successful 10k races for adults and now thanks to the fantastic support of the Arena Group I am delighted to say that we can provide a children’s race which is absolutely free to enter.”
The May 9 event will incorporate a 2.5km run for ages nine to 15 and a 1.5km run for ages three to eight, accompanied by an adult. Money raised will go towards the refurbishment of the children’s waiting area in the paediatric X-ray and ultrasound department at Leeds General Infirmary. Details at www.runforall.com
