A push in the right direction at Lincoln 10k

Keith Taylor, Senior Sport Development Officer at the City of Lincoln Council, said: The annual road race in Lincoln has grown enormously since it started 14 years ago, and we’ve opened it up to as many participants as possible, with separate wheelchair and school races alongside the main event.

"Getmummyfit helps mums and dads to get fit in a fun way that involves their children, so I hope that parents will take the chance to get involved with the Lincoln 10k through the Buggy Push. "

"Getmummyfit are delighted to join forces with The City of Lincoln Council for the first ever Buggy Push. The Lincoln 10K is an extremely popular event and we hope the addition of the Buggy Push will encourage the whole family to take part."
