Our City Council is urging people to don their running shoes in support of a national charity.

On Sunday 21st March, the council’s Salt Ayre Sports Centre will be hosting a Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile, a charity event open to participants of any age or ability, from toddlers to pensioners and anyone in between.

Milers can chose between a one-mile, three-mile and six-mile course. That means, from teeny-tots with their mums and dads, to super sprinters up against the clock, there’s something for everyone on the big day.

Registration is from 8.30am with a mass warm up from 9.30am. All participants will start at 10am.

The route takes in fantastic views of Lancaster Castle and the Priory church, running alongside a stretch of the River Lune.
