Community champions Silverstone Leasing put their best foot forward on Sunday to support The Amazing Northampton Run – Northampton’s newest half marathon.
The vehicle leasing company’s Managing Director Scott Norville and account manager Tom Bailey took part in the inaugural event, raising charity cash for Silverstone Leasing’s deserving chosen charity, Cynthia Spencer Hospice.
Operations manager Ryan Bishop was unable to run due to an injury, however donated his time to hand out cold drinks to those in the race.
More than 1,900 runners participated in the inaugural event, which was sponsored by Silverstone Leasing and saw entrants take a grand tour of everything great in Northampton in three different races – the half marathon, the half marathon relay or a three miler.
Scott said: “We are proud to be based in Northampton and contribute to the local economy and wider community and it is important to us to support local events such as this one.
“The Amazing Northampton Run was brilliantly organised and showcased the best of Northampton. I was delighted to see such a great turnout for the first event and we look forward to taking part again next year!”
