Thousands of athletes will put their best foot forwards on Sunday (June 11) for a popular charity run in Warwickshire. Organised by the Rotary Club of Kenilworth and Leamington Cycling and Athletic Club, the Two Castles Run will see competitors complete the 10km distance between Warwick Castle and Kenilworth Castle.
Entrants will once again raise money for causes of their own choice this weekend in what will be the 39th year of the race. Runners will leave Warwick Castle at 9am and head through Warwick along Coventry Road towards Leek Wootton via Hill Wootton Road.
They will then turn right onto Warwick Road and left at The Anchor Inn along Woodcote Lane. After that they will join Rouncil Lane, then Rounds Hill before heading along John O’Gaunt Road, Fishponds Road, Castle Road and left into Brays Car Park.
