THE OX5 will take place this Sunday in the grounds of Blenheim Palace, the 5-mile run will begin at 10am and the last day to sign up and secure a place is Thursday, at £25. Participants, of all abilities over the age of 14, can enter as an independent runner or as a team of 5 of more and are welcome to jog or walk the course. The biggest annual fundraiser for the Oxford Children’s hospital last year helped raise over £126,000, which helped buy new equipment such as a specialist system that speeds up the diagnosis of meningitis as well as helping to create a new parents’ accommodation at the hospital to keep families close to their child throughout the duration of their treatment.
