Running Events

2008 saw over 300 fundraisers taking part in running events across the UK! Ranging from 5K fun runs to full marathons, each gave their all and helped to raise over £75,000 towards our work. So far in 2009, we have had over 120 runners and income is coming in thick and fast yet again. We still have places left in the Great South Run and the Royal Parks Half Marathon, so if you still want to join Team Bones for a running event this year, get in touch now to secure your place.

You can register your interest now to participate in the 2010 runs that we have places in – there’s something for everyone so take a look at the fantastic runs that Team Bones will be participating in and choose the right one for you.

Thank you once again to all who have run on Team Bones before, and we look forward to seeing even more of you on the Team in 2010!
