Description
The Great Black Country Run - 22nd September 2013 Following the unprecedented success of last years’ inaugural Halesowen 5k Fun Run, The Rotary Club of Halesowen & Rowley Regis are now planning an even bigger and better fun-filled community event for 2013. This year we have made some changes. In addition to the 5k Fun Run, we are also now introducing a 10km Road Race which we hope will encourage more serious runners to take part. The event has also been re-branded and will now be known as ‘The Great Black Country Road Run’. Apart from having lots of fun on the day, our ultimate aim is to raise lots of money for good causes. Last year we managed to raise an amazing £6,000 which we donated to our three chosen charities. This year we have decided to open up the charity sponsorship so that individuals and teams of runners will be able to collect sponsorships for their own chosen charities through our Virgin Money Giving link.
