Bradford City Runs is back in the city this weekend.

The annual festival of running has a choice of three distances: a 5km, a 10km and a half marathon along with a special kids' mile run, all on closed roads in and around City Park in the city centre on Sunday 28 October.

The route will take in parts of Little Germany and the Broadway Shopping Centre, as well as the University of Bradford, Bradford College, City Hall and City Park.

Coun Sarah Ferriby, Bradford Council's Executive Member for Healthy People and Places, said:  "There is just one week to go before this popular event takes to the streets of the city with runners of all abilities and families taking part.  It is unique in that it offers a variety of distances and a special race for children. We would urge people to get signed up and get their running shoes ready for next weekend."
