HELSBY Running Club stages the ever-popular Shell Four Villages Half Marathon on Sunday.

The 13-mile road race starts at Helsby Community Sports Club and takes in the villages of Helsby, Dunham-on-the- Hill, Mouldsworth and Manley.

Entries are now full for the Shell UK-sponsored fixture, which attracts a maximum entry limit of about 2,500 competitors. No entries are taken on the day but people are always welcome to come along to spectate and cheer on the runners.

The race helps to generate many thousands of pounds for several local charities. Runners will assemble at the start line at 10:45am.
