2014 YTHAN CYCLE RUN – SEPT 6th

However participants will have the opportunity to donate half of any personal sponsorship to a charity of their own choosing and thus share in the proceeds of their own fund raising.

The event includes both long (26 mile) and short (8 mile) runs arranged to suit all age, capability and fitness levels.

Basic facilities will be provided at key points during the run, and refreshments will be provided as part of the registration fee after the event at our facilities at Udny Green.
