55. Run 10k through London for charity

The British 10K London Run, an annual event, is especially well suited for you to take part in with a small team who can run together

Oakley members Kathy, Ed and John Sealy took part as Team Sealy in July 2009

Kathy reports…………

• It’s run on a Sunday morning through the streets of central London , with large crowds and motivational music to keep you running.

• We entered it online in early 2009 – the event organisation was very good - over 27,000 participants.

• It’s not too long a distance, so a good event to do as a team - not everyone has to be a serious runner to take part

• We used Justgiving as a very effective way for our friends to donate money on line for our chosen charity – you select the good cause of your choice – in our case our charity provided the eye-catching running vests!

• Next year it is on Sunday 11th July 2010 -

KATHY SEALY is the contact if you want to ask about whether you could do it and how much training you need.
