Sue Ryder will return as Charity partner under new organisers of Great Eastern Run, Good Running Events
Good Running Events are delighted to announce that they are working with Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice, for the return of the Great Eastern Run on 16th October 2022.
A popular fixture in the race calendar in 2022 in its 40th anniversary year, the popular Great Eastern Run will return this Autumn and see leading club athletes and charity fun runners tackle a fast, flat route through the streets of Peterborough.
And Good Running Events and Sue Ryder will be working together to offer charity runners the chance to run the Half Marathon at the Great Eastern Run, and raise funds for this fantastic charity in the process.
Director of Good Running Events Aaron Murrell commented: “This is fantastic news – that we are announcing Sue Ryder as the latest Event Charity Partner that we are working with. We have met the hospice team several times since taking over the event earlier this year, and are really looking forward to having a large team of runners participating with us in October, in aid of this brilliant charity and supporting their vital work at Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice in Peterborough, and beyond.”
“I’m personally really looking forward to seeing hundreds of the blue ‘Team Sue Ryder’ vests on the closed roads of Peterborough City Centre on October 16th.”
Senior Community Fundraiser at Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice, Nilesh Patel, said, 'Everyone at Sue Ryder is absolutely thrilled that we are partnering with Good Running Event’s Great Eastern Run for 2022. As the local hospice to the route, Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice really hopes we can turn Peterborough’s streets a sea of blue on Sunday 16th October where we hope hundreds of runners will chose to pull on the famous ‘Team Sue
Ryder’ running vest and run to raise vital funds so our care teams can fill people’s final days with love.”
