Runners flock to Milton Keynes for Morunning Race series

 Runners dressed as Sunflowers and 118 donned their trainers to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the MoRunning race series.

More than 900 runners of all ages and abilities came to Campbell Park for a morning filled with fast times and moustache shaped medals in aid of the Movember Foundation.

MoRunning is a series of fun 1.5km, 5km and 10km runs taking place at 24 different locations across the UK & Ireland during November in aid of the Movember Foundation who raise vital funds and awareness around men’s health.

This year MoRunning is celebrating its 10th anniversary in which the running series has raised over a staggering £1,000,000. This year, runners were once again encouraged to join the fun in costumes and fancy dress, including the famed moustache, to continue to raise money for a great cause.
