A RUNNING club is supporting wellbeing through running with a ‘runandtalk’ event on February 1.

The Tadcaster Harriers run is for anyone affected by mental health issues or is keen to support the idea of improving wellbeing through running.

There will be a two mile run and a five mile run, setting off from Magnet Sports and Social Club from 6.45pm.

Sophie Overfield, Tadcaster Harriers’ Mental Health Ambassador, said: “We are keen to show the club’s support for mental health and wellbeing by having an event where everyone is welcome, whether they have done much running or not.”

Her colleague Amanda Apperley added: “There will be two runs, both very gentle.

“One will be a mile or two, the other about five miles; both led by qualified running leaders from the club.”

The runs are free and aimed at anyone aged over 18.
