The Movement Centre is very lucky to have some keen runners who are raising funds for us.
One brave man is Darren Hall. He took on the tough challenge of completing the London Marathon on Sunday 23rd April 2017. Darren, who works for Storage King, found himself one of the lucky runners to get a place in the London Marathon this year. He then decided he wanted to raise funds along the way. He finished the marathon in a time of 5 hours 12 minutes and raised over £500, a fantastic amount.
Oswestry Half Marathon
Another event that we have been delighted to be involved in is the inaugural Oswestry Half Marathon held on Sunday 30th April 2017. We had discounted charity places offered to us by UK RunChat. They were filled by some great local people.
Emily, Jo and Leanne ,from NatWest Bank, are going to take on this challenge. They wanted to support a local charity. They have been fundraising and held cake sales, spinathons, and through a JustGiving page. Also running the Oswestry Half Marathon are 3 Movement Centre staff Polly, Sarah and Curtis.
If you are in the local area come along and cheer all of our runners through the gruelling 13.1 miles.
