As you may have heard, our last race in the series of ten
was recently cancelled. The venue on the Isle of Wight was badly damaged
after the Isle of Wight festival, and the seemingly endless bad weather meant
it had no time to recover or be repaired. As such, the Race for Life
organisers had no choice but to cancel the event, leaving Team Tonia unable to
complete our ten race challenge.
Emma and I have desperately been looking for an alternative,
to ensure that we fulfil our promise to our sponsors and complete all ten
races.
And now we have it:
Race Ten……..in Abbotts Ann!
Our local village is hosting its second 5km & 10km
cross-country fun-run on Sunday 16th September and
Team Tonia will be there! This will be our tenth and last event and we
would love it if you could join us once more! The event is open to men,
women and children, and is accessible for pushchairs and dogs (although
pushchairs would be better on the 5km route). The entry fee will go
towards the organiser’s fundraising project which is to rebuild the pavilion on
the village sports field, but obviously all entrants would be welcome to raise
their own money for Cancer Research via our new JustGiving page: www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/TeamTonia.
Emma and I are thrilled with the sponsor money already raised, so there is no
pressure to raise any more (unless you want to!) – we just want to complete our
ten races.
So….if you would like to join us in your Team Tonia t-shirt
- running, walking, jogging, wheeling a pushchair or bringing the dog – Emma
and I would be thrilled! I have posted the registration form as the next post on this blog site, so please print it off, complete the form and post it with your entry fee to the address given.
Really hope you will join us!
Love Kate & Emma xxxx
