After almost seven months of planning the first race is nearly upon us.
Due to unforeseen circumstances we were forced to organise our own marathon and upon reflection I'm so glad this is the case. I've 'recruited' 15 incredible people who will individually join me for a 1.54 (ish) mile lap and attempt to raise some money for Team Run 12. It also means that Team Run 12 will be reunited for the weekend. Had I been overseas, it was likely that only my mum and sister would have been on the route; this alternative means that all of my friends, family and colleagues have the opportunity to join me and keep me motivated!
I'd like to invite you all to join me on Saturday 25th January from 9:30am at the Cyclopark in Gravesend (DA11 7NP). I anticipate that the last lap will take place at around 3pm.
Entry to the cyclopark is £2. If you have children, this also allows you access to the large on-site play park. We will also have two marquees on-site, offering sheltered viewing of the marathon, a DJ and lots more. There is a also large cafe offering a range of hot and cold foods and drink.
More information on the park can be found here: http://www.cyclopark.com

Please join me in thanking the guest runners and be sure to show them plenty of support during their laps.

Following the event I'd like to invite the guest runners and our friends and family to join us for celebratory drinks from 7pm at the Chiltern Hundreds on Sittingbourne Road in Maidstone.
We have kindly been allowed private use of the conservatory at the car-park end of the pub. I hope to see as many of you there as possible for a glass of bubbles to celebrate everyone's achievements on the day and to toast the year ahead.
