There was a feeling of immense sadness from everyone here at runABC on hearing the news of Her Majesty the Queen's passing earlier today and so it will be for runners across the country. It goes without saying that we offer deepest condolences to the Royal Family on behalf of the running family.

Her Majesty the Queen and the Royal Family have always been huge supporters of running events up and down the country with Run Sandringham, events in Windsor Great Park and Run Balmoral to mention only a few.

runABC plans to continue with our news feed over the course of the next few weeks as we believe that everyone will need an escape during an extended period of national mourning.

We do however understand that many race organisers may take a different view and a number of events may be cancelled or postponed during this period.

We will endeavour to keep you up to date in our race listing but we advise you to check with individual race organisers to ensure that events are going ahead as planned.
