The all-new Plusnet Yorkshire Half Marathon

Jane Tomlinson’s Run For All has entered into a partnership with Sheffield City Council and have gathered at the Peace Gardens to announce their involvement in the new Plusnet Yorkshire Half Marathon.

This follows from the previous disappointment of the marathon that fell through earlier this year due to lack of water supplies on the day.

Cabinet Member Isobel Bowler said: ‘I am confident that the race organisers will be well placed to make sure that all aspects of the race will operate with great professionalism.’

The half marathon takes place on 12th April 2015 with a new route that starts and finishes in the city centre.
