Lions in Rothley – Run, Run, Run!

More than 600 serious and not-so-serious individuals from Leicestershire and the surrounding counties are again expected to take part in the Rothley and Soar Valley Lions Club’s 25th Annual 10 Kilometre Road Race around Rothley village which will take place on Tuesday, 15th June starting at 1915 hrs. There are valuable team and individual prizes to be won in a range of categories – including juniors and veterans – as well as by the overall male and female winners and runners-up.
“This popular annual “fun” event raises money which is donated to our local favourite charities,” explained Club President, Norma Grimes. “We have a large core of regular runners who would not miss it and give us valuable support – but new entrants are always welcome.”
Early entry will save money and time. Entry forms are available now from the Leicester Mercury News shop or The Chip Shop, Cross Green, Rothley, from the Running Fox, Ashby Road, Loughborough, or, by email, from event co-ordinator, Colin Favell (colinfavell@live.com). Everyone is urged to come along on the night to take part or to cheer on the runners.
