Robin Hood Half Marathon

This event is an absolute MUST for any runner or budding runner. The atmosphere is electric and the support, outstanding. Our group of runners arrived a little early to get some photos taken and meet one another. For some it was another half marathon, for others it was their first ever time. We felt so proud of each and every one. 

Sally came all the way from near Brighton and generated £600 of support from her family and friends. We were a little bit worried that she might not be able to run as her name wasn’t on the list. It was a hair-raising hour but the result was that she re-registered and joined the others at the starting line. 

Despite the rain, plenty of people came out to support the runners and this was certainly felt and appreciated. The amount of people who contacted me afterwards to say they felt so supported made it clear this was well received. 

We enjoyed sending them off at the starting line and in what seems like no time at all, one by one they crossed the finish line and joined the team for refreshments and fun. It was good to be together and have the opportunity to meet both runners and supporters alike. 

We would like to say thank you to everyone who wore our running vest. There’s strength in numbers and I really do believe that with a good number of people representing us, people will have taken notice. Raising awareness of the work we do is so important. 

Those of you who raised financial support too - you can be assured that every penny we receive will be used to help children, keeping them safe, warm, healthy and learning. Thank you. 

Our incredible supporters at Property Protector, sponsored the running vests for us and we are so grateful to you for this support. A huge thank you from us for all you do to support us and help us to get our name known locally and nationally.
