Belfast Marathon
5 May 2008
The Belfast Marathon attracts over 13,700 runners each year and is becoming increasingly popular with seasoned runners and beginners alike. One of the big attractions with this event is that if you are not quite ready to run a full marathon you don’t have to!
You can still take part by either choosing to walk the route or enter the team relay where you share the 26.2 miles with four other people!
Fundraising
By joining our team and choosing to support Breast Cancer Care we do ask that you pledge to raise money for the charity. There is no minimum amount, we just ask that you raise as much as possible. In order to help you we will send you a pack full of tips and sponsorship forms and will be on hand to offer advice and answer any of your queries.
How we will support you
In return for pledging to raise money for us we will support you by providing you with:
- A state of the art running vest
- A support pack full of fundraising and training advice
- A training plan and top tips from our sports ambassador Denise Lewis
- Support and advice from a dedicated member of the sports team
- Regular newsletters and emails to keep you updated
- Fundraising materials to help you including balloons, posters and collection tins
