Following the success of last year’s inaugural event, Rudding Park Hotel in Harrogate has announced that the Rudding ParkRace – a 10K multi-terrain trail race – will return on Tuesday, May 9.
Organisers have been inspired by the tireless campaign to raise awareness and funds to support families living with MND by Rob Burrow and his family ever since the Leeds Rhinos legend was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2019.
