A 10:30am start for all people participating in 1 mile and 11:00am for people participating in 3 and 6 miles.

Portfolio Holder for Health at the Council, Councillor Sandra Harrison, said: “The Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile in Mablethorpe is here and it’s your time to shine. “From teeny-tots with their mums and dads, to super sprinters up against the clock there’s something for everyone on the big day – whether you do 1, 3 or 6 miles. Best of all, the money you raise by getting sponsored and entering will be used to transform lives forever, so come on everyone rise to the challenge!”
Hundreds of thousands of people across the country are expected to rise to the challenge at the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile. Comic Relief will spend the money raised through sponsorship helping poor and vulnerable people both here in the UK and across the world’s poorest countries.
