Children in Need 24 hour Challenge, 17 Nov -18 Nov

This event has now concluded.
Starts: 17 November 2011 at 19:00
Ends: 18 November 2011 at 19:00

This year, in aid of Children in Need, The Park Club will be running both a swim the length of the Thames, 215 miles and a run Land’s End to John o’ Groats, 874 miles. We will be running this fantastic charity event over a 24 hour period and invite all members at our sister Club, The Hogarth, and their guests to get involved. We just know that this will prove to be one of the highlights of the year for us.

Don’t be put off by the distances, you will not be expected to run the full distance but rather, do as much as you can to help us reach the target as a team. We will be advertising starting times from Thursday at 7pm all the way through to 6.30pm on Friday and would ask that you make sure you book your slot in advance to help our ambitious targets.

As this is a charity event we will be asking for donations of a minimum of £5 for a half hour slot and £10 for an hour slot. Our staff will record your distances for you and they will all tally towards our overall targets.

You can reserve your slot via The Hogarth gym team and make your payment on the day. We would also encourage any additional sponsorship you can raise and will have official Children in Need sponsorship forms for you to collect at reception also.

Our run will take place on the tread mills inside the gym and we will be using our outdoor pool for our swim and will be recording the efforts of all those involved. If anybody would like more information on how to get involved or any information generally please email Pat Fisher on patf@theparkclub.co.uk

SO COME ON, GET INVOLVED, GET THE KIDS INVOLVED, HAVE SOME FUN AND LET'S RAISE LOTS AND LOTS OF MONEY FOR PUDSEY AND CHILDREN IN NEED!

Children over 7 years of age may participate in the swim and over 11 years of age in the run. (within usual children's hours)
