Top-flight footballers run around 10km during a match, so why not challenge yourself and do the same.

During April, we're asking our supporters to complete Sir Bobby's Football Run by running 10km, whenever and wherever suits you best, and helping fundraise for the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation. Or, if a full match is a bit too much, maybe try running for half a game and do 5km.

We're encouraging our runners to wear their football club shirts, or a Sir Bobby Robson Foundation running vest, and to share their pics and training tips.

Sir Bobby's Football Run is free to enter and we're asking participants to try and raise £50 in sponsorship. After completing the run, we will send you a certificate and a Sir Bobby Robson Foundation pin badge*.

The money raised through Sir Bobby's Football Run will help us continue the work Sir Bobby began when he launched this Foundation, finding more effective ways to detect and treat cancer.

We hope you choose to run a match this April and join what Sir Bobby called his, last and greatest team. Thank you.

The Sir Bobby Robson Foundation is part of Newcastle Hospitals Charity (registration number 1057213)

*Unfortunately, we can’t send our pin badge to runners outside the UK. However, we will send a thank you letter and  certificate via email.
