It was a glorious day, and, of course, we had our very own support cheer squad outside 21 Co. in Headingley, clanging cowbells and distributing high-fives to the runners as they passed!
Thank you to Kerry Maule for the cheer squad footage - watch our mini video here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C66eX3Qs9YZ/
