The York Mini and Junior Run is a great way to get active and also experience the atmosphere of the York 10K the same day.
Open to runners aged 3 and up, of all backgrounds and abilities, this popular local event is a fantastic day out for all the family. 3-8 year olds can take on the Mini - a dash of 1.5km, and 9-14 year olds can go for the Junior - a 2.5km run.
All participants who finish will be rewarded with a goody bag and that all-important medal to show off to friends!
