The late Charlie Large who sadly passed away recently.
The organisers of the 41st Waterside Half Marathon have announced that Sunday's race start will be preceded by a one minute's applause in honour of the late Charlie Large, a stalwart of the event who sadly passed away last week.
A spokesperson said: "Charlie loved the Waterside Half and he was rightly honoured with a Civic Reception from the Mayor last year, along with the other founding committee members, on the occasion of the event’s 40th anniversary.
"Charlie’s expertise in athletics administration and event management has been a central element of the race’s success and it’s fair to say we wouldn’t have the renowned event we have today without him.
"The one minute’s applause at the start of the event is a chance for runners, supporters and event staff to show their appreciation for that and to let his family know they remain in our thoughts."
