Marble Hill Fun Run for Cancer Research

Marble Hill Fun Run for Cancer Research

06/09/2010

We had great fun yesterday at the inaugural Marble Hill Fun Run in aid of Cancer Research UK. We took over 200 adults and 50 children through a warm up before their 6k and 1k runs respectively. We certainly ensured the runners enjoyed their dynamic warm – up even encouraging the Mayor of Twickenham to join us on stage!

 

The event was organised by a team of local volunteers and they put on a great family day including an afternoon of entertainment including a number of live bands, children’s magician, a raffle and a number of stalls selling local produce.

 

It was inspiring, as always, to see so many runners of such a variety of ages, running experiences and athletics abilities doing their best and raising money for a charity close to many of our hearts. I’m pleased to report that Elvis just beat the Gingerbread man in a sprint finish!
