Roads to close for Hull 10K race

The Hull 10K previously started in Hull city centre, but will move to Craven Park this year

The annual Jane Tomlinson Run for All 10K race takes to the streets of Hull on 8 June.

There is a new route this year because of roadworks on the A63, meaning the race has been moved from its usual route around the city centre.

It will now take place in east Hull, starting and ending at Hull Kingston Rovers' Craven Park stadium and following a route through East Park.

The race starts at 09:30 BST. A number of roads will be closed and parking restrictions in force.

Thousands of runners are expected to take part in the event. It is named after Ms Tomlinson, who raised almost £2m for charity by taking part in endurance events around the world before her death from cancer in 2007.

The deadline for entries is midnight on 5 June, unless all places are taken.

Craven Park will host an "Event Village", with food and drink stalls

The car park at Craven Park will be shut to vehicles throughout the event.
