The Birmingham Mile
Where better to run the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile than right here in the heart of Birmingham? Our route will be cordoned off for you, making this an amazing opportunity to run (or walk) through the bustling city centre, while being cheered on by your family and friends. Right now we’re working hard to make sure there are loads of fun activities to keep you entertained and to say thank you for getting involved and raising money to help others. The BBC TV crew will be joining us too, so why not dig out your best fancy dress outfit and stand out from the crowds! So come along, get your face painted, do some celeb spotting or practice your golf swing - but in all of the excitement don’t forget to complete your Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile too!
