Bedding speed run gets theme
Published: 18 January 2010
Further details for the Knaresborough Bed Race have been announced, with those aiming to take the title for fastest bed linen in Yorkshire being given a theme for their clothing as they run with their bedding.
The Knaresborough Bed Race is to have another theme this year, requiring people to mix both work and play while running around the Yorkshire market town.That's because "occupations" will be the theme, the Knaresborough Post revealed, meaning everyone involved will have to dress as they do for work or someone else's profession, with the emphasis as usual being on creativity.
Entrants are also expected to use their bedding to reflect this running gag, meaning that bed linen will be used very creatively for the British public who turn out to watch it.
The 45th Bed Race is to take part on June 12th and now includes 90 teams after an increase in demand from applications over the years, though everyone has an equal chance as the final entries will be drawn during a public lottery in March.
Give your home that elegant 5 star hotel finish…
