There are only a few days to go until this year’s UKFast City of Manchester 10k, a Running Bee Foundation Event that’s always a huge amount of fun and certainly one of the friendliest running events you can sign yourself up to.
Manchester is an incredibly welcoming and supportive city, so if it’s your first time running and you’re feeling a little nervous, don’t worry… as soon as your feet start pounding that pavement, you’ll soon find yourself cheered on by the thousands of supporters who come out in their droves to scream words of encouragement!
If you’re keen to raise some sponsorship money and save yourself £23 on the entry fee, what about joining the We Love MCR charity team for this particular event, taking place on July 7th?
All you need to do to get your free race place is commit to raising some sponsorship cash for the charity using a platform like Virgin Giving or JustGiving. You can register your interest and book your place by emailing Ged Carter and letting him know you’re keen to take part and do your bit, while getting fit.
The race starts and finishes at the Etihad Stadium, with hundreds of people guaranteed to be there to cheer you on as you start from the Regional Athletics Track.
All profits from the 10k will be donated to local charities and good causes, with all finishers receiving a commemorative medal and a T-shirt, with official chip timing in place if you’re going for that personal best.
There will be more free race places coming over the year, keep watching this space.
