Entries open for Hotelympia 10k run

Entries are now open for the Hotelympia 10k run, which coincides with the Hotelympia show in April.

Last year's event saw over one thousand runners take part, and this year organiser Springboard said it hoped for an even bigger event.

Held at Excel London, and kicking off the Hotelympia Show on 27 April 2014, the race will feature a new course, a post-race brunch, and a ‘pasta party' where participants can get to know their fellow runners while stocking up on carbs ahead of the run.

The event will raise funds for the Springboard Charity, helping young, unemployed and disadvantaged people to improve their prospects for economic well-being. Sponsors include Mondelez International, Bunzl, Hit Training, and Huhtamaki, and key partners include ExCeL London, Craft Guild of Chefs, Novotel Hotels and Fresh Montgomery and Leapfrog PR.
