the run’s organisers, said: “Andy can’t get there until 10-45 a.m. on the Sunday morning as he will be doing morning service, but is going to come along after that and complete the route!” .This year, the annual run,
which will be held on Sunday, October 3rd, will follow a new route from Moorland School and incorporate Brungerley Park. Rev. Proud approached
