Bradford runners are being urged to sign up for the sold-out Plusnet Yorkshire Marathon.

The new flagship marathon, to be staged in York on October 20, sold out in January – just three days after being revealed – with all 5,500 initial places being snapped up. A waiting list is now operating.

However, the Jane Tomlinson Appeal has announced it has a number of guaranteed places for runners who would like to fundraise for the charity.
