Much-loved City of Lincoln 10K set to return for 2022

Not-for-profit events company, Run For All, has announced the return of one of the region’s most most popular and picturesque charity road run events, the City of Lincoln 10K.

Organised in partnership with City of Lincoln Council, the 2022 City of Lincoln 10K marks the 8^th year of Run For All’s organisation of this popular and well supported event. Taking place on Sunday 30 October, the event will return to the previous and much-loved route, starting on Riseholme Road and finishing outside the towers of Lincoln Cathedral. 

As one of the highlights in the region’s sporting calendar, it’s hoped thousands will return to the streets of Lincoln to enjoy the fast and flat scenic town route, while taking in many of the city’s historic landmarks.

Building on its previous organisation of the event, Run For All will work closely with City of Lincoln Council to increase community and charity engagement, while also working to remove barriers to participation, so that more people in the region can enjoy the benefits of getting active.

Cllr Bob Bushell, Portfolio Holder for Remarkable Place at City of Lincoln Council said: “We are delighted that the City of Lincoln 10K will be returning this year and look forward to once again working with Run For All as a partner to make it one of the highlights of Lincolnshire’s events calendar.

“Regular physical activity plays such a huge role in our mental and physical wellbeing and the City of Lincoln 10K will no doubt be a great incentive to motivate more people to get active.”

Providing fundraising opportunities for charities is the primary objective of every Run For All event, ensuring that the money being raised by the event stays local and supports the causes that need them most.

Any charities interested in becoming an Official Charity Partner of the event, whether they have previously been involved with the City of Lincoln 10K or not, are encouraged to contact Run For All as soon as possible.

Mike Tomlinson, Chief Executive at Run For All added, “We are thrilled to be returning to the city of Lincoln this year to organize this popular event. The City of Lincoln 10K is always such an incredible community event, and as always it will be our mission to facilitate an event that removes barriers to participation and embraces the community within Lincoln and the surrounding area.

 “Working with City of Lincoln Council, we hope to highlight the incredible communities at the heart of this town and inspire people to join us for day of great running – whatever their ability or previous running experience.”
