RUN THE RACE
Guaranteed Places
BUPA Great South Run - Portsmouth - 10 miles - Sunday 26 October 2008
We
have a limited number of guaranteed places - first come, first served.
They
are likely to go quickly, so if you are interested, let us know NOW!
(NB
We hope to be able to offer places in the Manchester and Portsmouth events again in 2009, and
it is never too soon to register your interest.)
Other Events
We
would also love to hear from you if you have a place in any of these very
popular events:
BUPA Great Yorkshire Run - Sheffield - Sunday 7 September 2008
BUPA Great North Run - Newcastle - Sunday 5 October 2008
BUPA London Marathon - Sunday 26 April 2009
WALK THE WALK
If
running is not for you, how about going for a walk instead? Many walks are organised every year by local
Rotary Clubs, in which people can choose a favourite charity to benefit.
We
have found 30 around the country, so the chances are that at least one of them
is not too far from you. Most are
between 5 and 15 miles, with many offering a variety of distances. All take place between April and October, and
have become annual events (so there is always next year!).
How
about making up a group with a few friends, or turning it into a social
activity for your church? For a list of
dates, locations, distances and organisers’ contact details, click here.
For more information, or if you have any queries about
these runs or walks, please do not hesitate to contact us by telephone on 020
