The Great Yorkshire Run returns to Sheffield for it's ninth running

It looks as if the sun will shine again this weekend for the 9th running of the Great Yorkshire Run - the annual 10k that takes place along Sheffield's streets.

Gemma Steel will be looking to make it 5-in-a-row following her success last year though she will probably face stiff competition from Lauren Howarth and Lauren Deadman.

Gemma Steel wins (again) in 2014

In the men’s race, Chris Thompson continues his comeback from injury and will be up against Ryan McLeod, Johnny Mellor, Keith Gerrard, Sam Stabler, Sean Fontana, Kenya’s Jackson Biwott and Ethiopia’s Wondiye Indelbu.
