On Sunday (January 12), The Racecourse played host to a charity race, in aid of a fundraiser for a poorly seven-year-old girl and the Umbrella Fair Organisation.
Hosted by MCC Promotions, which holds races across the country and has been coming to Northampton for a number of years, around 200 runners were expected to take part.
A proportion of the entry fees will be donated to the Umbrella Fair Organisation and an online fundraiser for a seven-year-old girl who needs around the clock care following complications in treatment for a brain tumour. Some runners will also be sponsored, and there will be a tombola on the day and an opportunity to donate, in a bid to raise as much as possible.
Take a look at the photos below of runners braving the cold for a 10km charity run in Northampton.
