Virtual Whaley Waltz to raise funds for charity

A fell race with a difference is being held to raise funds for the Thomas Theyer Foundation.

With the Whaley Waltz postponed again due to Covid, organisers have found a new way to ensure the event can take place – this time virtually. 

Thanks to the use of technology from now until the end of July, runners will be able to take part via Maprun, with prizes awarded to the fastest runner in each category. 

Entry is £3.50 (plus a small booking fee) and all proceeds go to the Thomas Theyer Foundation.
