  We have sadly had to now cancel our own large scale marathon event due to cost and logistical problems. However, we are keen to still have running events and to that end have approached the ‘ Run to the Beat’ half marathon for spaces. You can only run in the event for a pre selected charity. The Forces Children’s Trust have kindly offered to purchase the spaces should we get a sufficient number committed to running in the event. We are aiming for 20 + so if you are thinking of competing in a half marathon this year consider doing so for The Forces Children’s Trust
We also have some individuals who are considering a longer, extreme event on a very small scale. Watch this space for an update.
