Mum's fitness plan for her son blossoms into 30 strong running club to get Burnley people fighting fit
A mum's bright idea, to help her son raise his fitness levels before he applied to join the army, has blossomed into an unofficial running club to help get the people of Burnley fit and active.
And for the second time in 13 months members of the Towneley Run Club are preparing to take part in a challenge to raise money for Pendleside Hospice.
Around eight runners and walkers are limbering up for the 51 mile Pendle to Kendal walk on Friday and also the Burnley 10k in July which they took part in last year and raised £210.
