With Health and Safety paramount, this year's GPW Recruitment St Helens 10k Run will not take place in its original form and will now become a top-class Virtual Weekend with state of the art timing solutions by the best in the business TDL Event Services.
Martin Blondel said, “The organising committee of the GPW Recruitment St Helens10k Run have delayed this decision as long as possible. Considering the current position with COVID-19 we have made the difficult decision of replacing the normal 10k run with a top-class Virtual Run Weekend that will take place on the same weekend of 6/7th March. This is in line with other 10k runs across the country. We have invested a lot of time and effort with our timing solutions providers TDL Event Services on creating an app that will be interactive and give athletes a unique insight into their 10k run. The app will track every runner via GPS and will give a time for each kilometre completed; this will then show up on the app.

By athletes taking part and improving their health and well-being it will be another kick in the teeth for Covid and continue the great man’s Steve Prescott MBE legacy.
