TO HELP you beat the blues this winter a fun and colourful run is being held in Kendal.

Hosted by personal trainer Sarah Jones the Glow Run 3km and 5km will take place this Saturday at 6.30pm.

Joining forces with local organisation JoggingPals the event is promised to be a family friendly evening fun run.

Runners are encouraged to dress in all things neon and will be given a collection of glow sticks and flashing headgear on the night.

Once finished those who took part will be rewarded with some coffee and delightful cake treats.

"The winter can seem endless when you go to work and come home in the dark," said Sarah.

"Sticking to exercise habits feels harder with the lack of motivation and that then affects your choice in foods and your sleep pattern.

The run will start from the Dojo at Kendal Judo Club.

Prices vary from £8 to £3 for the event. All monies collected will go to MIND charity.
