Reds legend David May will take part in the Manchester United Foundation’s annual Santa Run when it returns for its 10th year on 4 December.
Ryan Giggs, Bryan Robson and, most recently, Denis Irwin have all previously been involved as official starters of the race in recent years, with the latter joined by 1,700 participants for last year's fundraiser.
Former United defender May - who has been regularly involved in Foundation work since retiring in 2006 - says he's looking forward to taking part in this year's event.
"I can't wait!" he said.
