It's the FC Minithon for MedEquip4Kids!
When? Sunday 19 October (although this site does not expire until 31 March 2009)
Where? Chorlton Water Park, Manchester, M21 8EH. The run is only 5.8km, but a more attainable distance and a high number of runners will hopefully raise a lot of money.
Who? Myself, and a lot of other people (many like myself will have seen their fitness levels peak a LONG time ago)!
Why? For good causes!
Further Details
On Sunday 19 October 2008, I will be participating in the FC Minithon - a charity run raising money for MedEquip4Kids in conjunction with FC United of Manchester.
Such a partnership has the potential to change lives. As an extremely high priority, MedEquip4Kids seek donations to support children who are in and out of hospitals, including those with severe illnesses. Time in hospital can be very difficult for those of a young age, and MedEquip4Kids aim to ensure children have the best care and opportunities possible.
FC United's formation in 2005 has been well-documented, and a huge emphasis has been placed on community work, and making football affordable and accessible to all. In line with these aims and catering for fans ahead of profiteering (as a NON-PROFIT ORGANISATION), the club wish to develop their own community facilities so as to continue to provide free football coaching amongst schools and youth groups in Greater Manchester.
