On 18th February, Nottingham Triathlon Club members, Jack Westley from Nottingham Rugby, Outlaw Triathlon, Paul Robinson, arch2arc London to Paris Triathlon 300 miles, and Richard Walker, a GB Age Grouper met to do a social run of the Nottingham 10k route that takes in the iconic sights of Nottingham. They were running to raise awareness for Sam Perkins Stand Against MND Charity and his Fifty50 Campaign.

After starting in Old Market Square; the 10K runners headed north of the city centre, travelling along Mansfield Road before reaching Nottingham Girls High School.

Once there, they ran along Forest Road East and onto Church Rock Cemetery before travelling south back towards Nottingham City Centre. The runners then reached Motorpoint Nottingham Arena before looping around Nottingham’s Park Estate.

Welcoming them back to the city's historic Nottingham Castle were Sarah Williams from British Triathlon, Mike McCabe and Katie Logan from Nottingham Triathlon Club and Benji Howard aka the Kingdom Rapper. 

Bringing Nottingham Clubs and artists together was all thanks to Chris Thorne from Nottingham Triathlon Club.

Nottingham 10km take place on 10th March 2024.
