Entries are now closed for the Sport Relief runs in Bedford on Sunday morning organised by the University of Bedfordshire.

The Sainsbury’s Sport Relief miles, organised by the University in conjunction with Bedford Borough Council’s Sports Development Unit, are starting from 10am in Bedford Park.

All the races – a total of 450 entrants – are now full as runners are competing over one, three or even six miles.

The University’s sports development officer Julia Lines is one of the organisers. She said: “The number of entrants is limited by the number of water bottles and goody bags supplied by Sport Relief.

“I’m sure we could have got many more, but we’re a victim of our own success as Sport Relief can’t cater for anyone else.

“There’s still the opportunity for anyone that has not signed up to come along on the day and cheer us on. Or you could even be one of the volunteers who are still needed to help the event run smoothly.”

If you are interested in volunteering on Sunday, email Julia at julia.lines@beds.ac.uk

The University’s own Professor of Sport, Professor John Brewer, is also appearing on Three Counties Radio on Friday morning as part of its Sport Relief-led programmes.
