The Running Bee’s Chair of Trustees Carl Austin-Behan OBE, DL said: “Like so many other charitable organisations, we have been hit hard by the effects of Covid-19.
“We planned for many months to ensure we met all the health and safety requirements in order for runners and spectators to be safe.

“We hope to be back in the autumn and our thoughts and best wishes are with the people of Preston, the council and our fantastic sponsor SPAR.”
