Kids' Marathon Challenge

On Sunday 7th June, 42 children entered the Kids' Marathon Challenge at The Obelisk Centre.  

It was boys against girls with the boys winning a close run event by around a mere 100 meters. Both teams ran 64 laps (13 miles) making a total of the marathon distance.

Families came to watch, it was a lovely afternoon in the sun, great support from NRR marshals. Mum's race and dad's race at the end concluding with kids and big kids enjoying getting soaked with a water fight.

£434 was raised for Kidsaid, a local charity.

Massive thanks to everyone who took part and supported the event and a special mention to Paula Pinney for her tireless effort in arranging this event for the second year running.
