October Update

31/10/2013

0 Comments

 
What a month it's been... Team Run 12 have all met for the first time, added new medals to the collection, trained (and not trained) and raised over £1000 towards our huge £25,000 target! We've got so much to look forward to and so many ideas, it's safe to say all of our friends and family are going to be kept busy throughout 2014! 

And so it began...

As we've said, endlessly, we had an amazing time at our launch party at the start of October. Being together as a team for the first time was overwhelming and I think we were all surprised at how well we connected. 

I couldn't have a better collective of people, inspiring in their own ways, supporting me on this journey. The main highlight was raising over £1143.92 for our charities, the reason behind all of this. So thank you once again to everyone who joined us...


We've Been Racing...

Mark Taylor Post Birmingham Half
Mark completed his second Birmingham Half Marathon in 2:13:54, look at the pride on his face! Plenty of late night training runs certainly paid off! :-) 

Shelley has been setting the standard for all of us with the Ashford 10km and Great South Run under her belt, even though she's currently undergoing radiotherapy. Super woman has been found... If this isn't inspiring, I do not know what is. 

Shelley completed the Great South Run in 1:23:56 despite gale force winds! 

Well done to you both x


& We've Been Fundraising...

On Friday 18th October, Becky and Meg's cousin, Christine, and Aunt, Susan, held a coffee morning to raise funds towards our £25,000 target. In just one morning they raised £331 through cake sales, a raffle and games including bingo. 

Their huge contribution has meant we have already raised nearly £1700 - we haven't even started running yet! 

If you'd like to hold a coffee morning for us, please get in touch by clicking here. Balloons, banners and posters can be provided! Every penny helps...

Becky and Paris attended an Indigo Pamper event on Saturday 26th October, raising over £30 from several mini games! A massive thank you to Carla for having us, we're already looking forward to future events.

Welcome To Our Sponsors...

We'd also like to say a huge thank you and welcome to our two new sponsors: Allwag Promotions and Closer Still Media, The Dentistry Show. 

Closer Still Media work closely with Becky in her day job as an events executive, whilst Allwag Promotions have taken the gold sponsorship role after being touched by Team Run 12's story. Lots more to come on our amazing sponsors, their involvement and everything they will make possible for us... 

If you'd like more information on becoming a sponsor, please click here. Packages range in price from £250 - £1000 and offer extensive exposure and media opportunities for your business. 

Once again, we'd like to say a massive thank you to everyone who is supporting us on this journey. Training is in full swing now with less than three months to go until the first marathon and we're constantly planning new fundraising initiatives. If you have any ideas or suggestions, or just want to wish us good luck please click here to drop us a line!
