Runs and Marathons

To many, the idea of training for and ultimately running just over 26 miles in one attempt is patently ludicrous.

However, there are now many variations on the traditional running theme - meaning there is probably one to suit nearly everyone. Whether you would like to participate in a short run, a marathon or any other running challenge, we can support you throughout your preparation.

2012 promises to be an amazing year in the UK - the Olympic Games will catch the imagination of millions worldwide. We plan on leaving our own mark on the year - through three fantastic running events. Visit our running microsite to find out more.

Events and Challenges

 

Treks

Nepal
Treks are a fantastic way for people to experience the wonders of Nepal while helping to raise funds for our work with some of the country's poorest children.

For all its poverty and social desperation, Nepal is blessed with one of the finest natural features known to humankind – The Himalaya mountain range. Treks take advantage of the beautiful environment with a fully-coordinated challenge that takes place against the backdrop of Mount Everest.

 

UK
You don’t have to travel halfway around the world to participate in an arduous walking challenge. In the UK alone there are notable walking feats such as The Three Peaks Challenge and The Great Glen Walk – plus numerous others.

 

The scenery will still be one of astounding beauty, and your legs will still be seeking a hot bath at the end of each day – and we will still be able to use the money you raise for your efforts to help the children we care for in Nepal.
