“It’s the ideal event if you want to get more active in 2017, while having fun. Our events are open to all ages and abilities, and participants can run, jog or walk the route.
“We’ll also provide a full training guide to help keep Resolution Runners on track every step of the way.
“By training and taking part in the runs, you’ll be helping to reduce your own risk of stroke while raising awareness and money to support those already affected by the condition.”

The money raised through the Resolution Run in Watermead will help the Stroke Association to fund vital research and support people affected by stroke in Aylesbury.
Entry fee is just £15. All runners receive a technical running T-shirt and medal.
