It takes place on the weekend of the Grand National (April 5) at Warwick Racecourse, where participants will run 7km (the distance of the Grand National), and all runners will be dressed in horse costumes.

There will also a 2.5km race, and a 1km kids fun run. All profits of the event go to locally based charity Kids Run Free, whose mission is to make children happier, healthier and more confident through running.
