Marathons

London

London Marathon
Sunday 13th April 2008

Run the biggest marathon in the world!

Why not share this amazing experience with Beating Bowel Cancer and join our team in The London Marathon to help us increase the awareness of the UK’s 2nd biggest cancer killer.

There are two ways you can join the Beating Bowel Cancer team:

As a Golden Bond Runner

Beating Bowel Cancer has a limited number of guaranteed places in the Flora London Marathon and we would love you to join our team!

As a Golden Bond runner we ask you to raise a minimum of £2,000, and we will support you all the way. To apply for your guaranteed place, simply please email the events team. today and request a registration form.

We will also ask you to apply through the official London Marathon ballot, which is open NOW until mid October. Simply pick up a copy of Marathon News from your local sports shop, fill it in and send it back to London Marathon by mid October. For a full list of sports shops stocking Marathon News please visit www.london-marathon.co.uk. This not only doubles your chances of getting a place, but allows you still to run for Beating Bowel Cancer if you are successful in the ballot.

The results will then be announced in early December, and then our golden bond places will be allocated!

As an own Place Runner

If you got through the ballot and have your own place we would still love you to run as part of the Beating Bowel Cancer team. You will receive the same benefits and support as a Golden Bond runner. All you need to do is contact us and let us know!

If you have your own place, all we ask you to do is raise as much money as you can for us.

All Beating Bowel Cancer runners receive:

  • A professional running vest
  • Fundraising support, materials, e-newsletters and ideas from our dedicated events team
  • PR support to raise awareness of your efforts in your local area

Get those running shoes on and join our team!
