Motorists have been warned of several road closures throughout Darlington as it hosts the annual 10K run on Sunday.
More than two thousand runners will set off to complete two laps of the town centre course in what has become a popular event for runners of all levels aged 15 and over.
Also taking place are the Family Fun Run and the Junior 3K event.
But with the return of the event comes a host of road closures in and around the town centre on Sunday.
Motorists have been warned to avoid the area, or make alternative travel plans during the event.
