Supporting community-led projects to help your local area recover from the COVID-19 crisis
We are inviting the local community to get active by putting on a 'Mini' Marathon Event.
Sorry this project was unsuccessful, we did not reach our fundraising goal.
This 'Mini' Marathon with distances of 1.6km, 3km and 5km is an event accessible for all. Whether you are less physically able or at your peak in fitness terms, the distances a manageable and appropriately targeted for all abilities. The course is suitable for wheelchair access using ramps at only one point on the course and accordingly is suitable for families with pushchairs. The key ambition is to welcome newcomers as well as the experienced runner to enjoy a sense of achievement together. This grass roots event supports one of our charity's main aims which is to promote Health & Wellbeing.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
There is a lot of scientifically supported evidence that a fit body translates to a fit mind. Walking, jogging and running is encouraged for everyone to support their being physically active and resultingly healthy. If willing, we encourage the participant to help raise money for local projects boroughwide. A perfect way to enjoy a community event and support good causes whilst being physically active.
