When planning your route consider your own abilities. Think about how far you want to go, the terrain you are going to be running over and how busy the route is likely to be with road crossings and other users. Can I run with other people? Anyone participating in this event must comply with the restrictions in place by your government or local governing body, where you live. What if I have an accident whilst out running? Ensure someone in your group has a phone, that someone knows where you have gone, and when you expect to return. Will this event support any charities? Yes – all profits made from this event will go to support Rainbow Home, an LGBT+ asylum seeker charity in Newcastle. You can donate during the sign up to this event.
