BUPA London 10,000
Monday 26th May 2008 (Bank Holiday Monday)
This exciting new 10k event organised by the teams who brought us the Flora London Marathon and the BUPA Great North Run will be taking place along the streets of central London on the course which is expected to be used for the 2012 Olympic Marathons! The London 10,000 website is now open and the independent places are sold out.
We are delighted to announce that we have 20 Golden Bond places for Meningitis UK. We ask all runners to raise £450 to take part and in return you get lots of resources, support and encouragement. To find out more information, please download our London 10,000 information sheet.
If you would like to join the Meningitis Musketeers in this inaugural event then please complete and return the application form or give Emily a call on 0117 302 6192 or email emilyknight@meningitisuk.org
If you would like to take part or already have a place and would like to support Meningitis UK, we would be delighted to hear from you.
