Do you have a cause that you feel passionate about?

Do you want to raise funding to support young people, mental health, the environment?

Or do you just want to shift some of the other extra pounds?

Whatever your motivation, there are a few options when it comes to taking part in running events. If you enter an event to help raise money for a local charity, it can help keep you motivated and on track with your training. It will also hugely increase the sense of achievement when you cross the finish line.
