Runners flock to Leicester for annual half-marathon

By Jayden Whitworth

The much-loved Leicester half marathon took place over the weekend, as hundreds of runners pounded the streets of Leicester.

The event took place on Sunday(OCT30), with streets being closed off so the run could be completed safely.

The run kicked off at Victoria Park, before heading out towards Leicester’s Golden Mile, looping back towards Watermead Park and Abbey Park and finishing back at Victoria Park.

All proceeds from the event will be donated to their charity partner, LOROS Hospice.
