Clarion 10k Corporate challenge races ahead with 500 already signed up

THE Leeds 10k Corporate Challenge is fast approaching, and this year has a lot to live up to.

It has become a main feature of Jane Tomlinson’s Run for All and last year 850 of Yorkshire’s business community turned up to show their support.

Sunday 10 July will be the 10th time that Clarion has been involved in to 10k, and now potential participants are being urged to get their trainers on and get running.

At the end of last week 500 corporate runners for the Challenge had been signed up.

One of those is Andy Wood, Grant THornton practice leader. He said: “Grant Thornton are thrilled to be supporting the Clarion Corporate Challenge again this year, building on our debut last year. With our fast growing team in Leeds, we have more runners than ever to choose from, and we’re going for a Top-10 finish!”

Teams from Armstrong Watson, Esh Construction, Handelsbanken, KPMG, Squire Patton Boggs, Endless, as well as Shulmans, Bevan Brittan and RSM have already signed up.
