More than a thousand runners will be lining up for one of the county's biggest 10k events this weekend.
The Telford 10k Road Race returns on Sunday, December 11, with a number of top class runners lining up for the event.
Paul Sanderson from Telford Athletic Club said:"The race has grown over recent years and is now regarded as one of the premier races in the country, and as well as attracting a top class international standard field it is also popular with runners of all abilities aiming to get personal bests." Mr Sanderson said the race had moved venue over the years to provide a better running experience, saying:"The race first started in 1984 and was held around the streets of Wellington based at the Wellington Swimming Pool.
"She is entered again and will be going for a hat-trick of victories as she is the fastest in the field with 31.11 which she ran at the Trafford 10k in March earlier this year. "Last year's winner was Alfie Manthorpe from Sheffield who ran 29.08, when 27 men ran faster than 30 minutes.
