London Marathon
We like to think that being in the St Catherine’s London Marathon team is more than about just taking part. It is great fun and raises a considerable amount of money towards providing specialised end of life care and support to local people, their families, friends and carers. In 2009 our marathon team raised over £68,000 towards the services of St Catherine’s Hospice!
The St Catherine’s London Marathon team receives the following:
• Dedicated support from our fundraising team
• A training guide including hints on setting running goals, stretching, running logs and much more
• A fundraising pack full of useful hints and tips
• A St Catherine’s running vest
• Information on how to use online fundraising to help you hit your target
• Information and training sessions with one of the UK's top athletes
• A bus to the marathon start line with support on the way from our fundraising team who will also cheer you on over the route!
• A team of massage therapists to meet you at the finish line and give your muscles the treat they deserve!
• A post-marathon thank you party for you and your supporters
The date for the 2010 London Marathon is Sunday 25th April. We have now allocated our golden bond places but would love to hear from anyone who has their own place in the marathon and would like to fundraise for St Catherine’s Hospice.
