Here's your chance to run down Doncaster airport runway and support city's Vulcan

If you have ever fancied taking a run along the runway at Doncaster Sheffield Airport, here’s your chance – at a unique event to support the city’s famed Vulcan bomber.

Run the Runway is returning to Doncaster next year.

Taking place from 11am on March 21, the event, organised by Libra Races in partnership with Fly Doncaster and Doncaster Sheffield Airport, will allow participants to run on the airport’s runway, finishing beside the iconic Vulcan aircraft.

Runners can choose between two distances — 3.5k or 5.8k — catering to both casual joggers and seasoned athletes.

This year’s race will be chip-timed and all finishers will receive a bespoke medal. Participants will also have access to race photographs, and there will be an option to purchase an exclusive event t-shirt.

Tickets are priced at £14 for the 3.5k and £20 for the 5.8k event.

With the runway setting and Vulcan finale proving popular previously, organisers are expecting strong interest.

Entries are now open at LibraRaces.co.uk.
