Families and keen runners are being encouraged to take part in the Chorley 10K and 2K Family Run.

Organised by Chorley Council in conjunction with Fylde Coast Runners, the annual event has grown from strength to strength since it started in 2019.

Both races next Sunday start and finish on Market Street. The route takes runners through Astley Park, which is lined with spectators cheering competitors on.

All entrants will receive a medal at the finish line.
