The 2017 Virgin London Marathon will take place on the streets of London on Sunday 23rd April. This iconic marathon is a major event on the international sporting calendar and is also an important fundraising opportunity for charities like Cherry Lodge Cancer Care.
We currently have seven runners signed up and training hard to take part on our behalf. (Unfortunately, our eighth runner has had to withdraw from this year’s race due to injury – we wish him well for next year.) The commitment and physical effort required to run a marathon is enormous and the least the rest of us can do is to show our support through sponsorship.
All our runners have now set up online fundraising pages, which you can access by clicking on their names listed below:
Alternatively, contact our runners directly, or, for more information about any of the people who will be running for us, please call Tina or Nisha on 020 8441 7000 or e-mail tina@cherrylodgecancercare.org.uk.
Our runners would also definitely appreciate your support on the day. Why not add Marathon to your diary for 23rd April and make plans to go and cheer our team on? More information about the race, including general advice for spectators, can be found on the Virgin London Marathon website.
