The Witham Lions' half-marathon has been cancelled due to the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease.
The race, which was scheduled for Sunday, April 1, has been abandoned on the advice of the South of England Athletics Association and there are no plans to hold the event at a later date.
People who have entered the event should contact Tom Barnes on 01376 517716. It is hoped they will be refunded within ten days.
