VIDEO: Hundreds of runners join the Wakefield Hospice 10K 2022

The popular event, run by Wakefield Hospice, started on Lawefield Lane at 9am with the Mini Run following shortly afterwards.

The crowds cheered on the runners, from the youngest to the more professional, with the sun shining as they did.

Thousands of pounds have been raised for Wakefield Hospice as a result.

Alex Cunniff, Events Fundraiser at Wakefield Hospice, said: "Firstly and most importantly, thank you to all our runners who entered our 10K and 1k Mini Run on Sunday. Your support, generosity and participation all helping raise funds for patient care, we thank you.

"Every runner, every penny, every moment counts.

"It was amazing to see both new and old faces watching in the crowds and crossing the finish line. The event had a beautiful community feel and the hospice is so thankful for everyone’s support.

"Thanks must also go to all the many people who made this event happen: Our generous sponsors The Card Factory Foundation, our suppliers, our officials and our huge team of hospice volunteers."
