STATEMENT FROM EVENTS OF THE NORTH REGARDING COVID-19

“In response to the current and evolving situation around COVID-19, or coronavirus, Events of the North would like to state that in line with recent government and local authority advice, we are currently still planning to host the Sunderland City Runs weekend from 9-10th May.

“We are constantly monitoring what is obviously a fast-moving situation and are making contingency plans if required. We will provide updates as the situation develops, and will notify our entrants of any changes to our 2020 events as soon as we are able.

“If government advice changes in the coming weeks, we have already had discussions with Sunderland City Council and plans are in place to hold the Sunderland City Runs weekend on a date later this year. In light of any event change, all entries booked up until the date of postponement will be valid for the new date.

“The wellbeing of our participants, volunteers, general public, or members of our own staff is our main priority, particularly with events planned across the country.

“Thank you for your patience and understanding.”
