    Many Charities reserve places at some of the more popular running events which are often difficult to get places for such as The London Marathon and The Great North Run. The great thing is that there are charity events and places for all distances and all abilities – everything from the Race 4 Life 5K which supports Cancer Research to 10Ks, 1/2 marathons and even the full 26.2 mile marathon. Running for charity is a brilliant way of securing your place at some of the best races in the country – although there is usually a minimum sposorship requirement to prevent freeloaders!

    Many Charities will also provide you with moral support throughout your training and the race. Christian Aid provide runners of the Great North Run with training programmes, nutritional advice, fundraising tips and even a free foot massage after the run itself! – dont forget – the Great North Run is taking place on 20th of September and the closing day for entries is 1st July. This is a really popular race so it is important to book your place as early as possible to avoid disappointment.
