← Ali Brownlee 5K
Got told about this run alot by my running pals and decided to give it a go for the 1st time.
Firstly if you are a Boro fan than it is a must for you as it is set around the football ground.
Signing up online was easy and number was delivered in the post.
Arrived before the roads were closed and parked right next to the startline.
Many local running groups have large groups of runners attending this run but the entry is very mixed from paralympic runners to c25k runners.
As there is a 5k run and a 2k fun run after, there is alot of local support from families.
Many local landmarks can be seen on the route and both runs end inside the Middlesbrough Football Stadium.
After the 5k, the 2k starts about 30 minutes later and you can run both.
Same medal and t-shirt for both races though.
A great event for any local or visitor.
