The event for children aged between three and 14 began last year and saw almost 150 youngsters tackle the 2.5km route. And with the run back for a second year, the event on Sunday May 13 is now open for entries.

Events director Sara Birkinshaw said: ‘It’s a short 2.5km course for juniors and a 1.5km run for minis, through the beautiful city streets of Leeds and thanks to our event sponsors Arena, entry is completely free.’

The fundraisers’ programme for 2012 has been finalised, including the Leeds 10K for those aged over 14. The new www.forallevents.co.uk website deals with registration. picture: James Hardisty.
