| Published: 5th February 2007 11:30 |

On Sunday 18th February 2007, the 3rd Tamworth Heart 10K and Fun Run will take place at the Castle Pleasure Grounds near Tamworth. The event will be started by special guest Ashia Hansen - World 2003 and Commonwealth 2002 Triple Jump Champion
The 10K race is in aid of the British Heart Foundation and the Fun Run is in aid of St Giles Hospice Lichfield, a purpose built Hospice. Admission to hospice care is entirely free and subject only to medical and social need. Only one third of the running costs are provided by the NHS and the main income for capital and revenue comes from donations, Gift Aid and legacies. In 2006 Tamworth Heart 10K raised £10,622 for the British Heart Foundation by runners' sponsorship.
Although it's too late to enter the 10K run, you can still turn up on the day and pay £5 to enter the fun run. Other ways in which you can support the event are by sponsoring any of the competitors or by turning up on the day to cheer on the runners.
