Story
Who are we?
We are the Nous Galoupe Running Club. We do club runs every week and have recently challenged ourselves to complete a section of the Vitality Big Half Marathon on the 10th March (2.4 miles to be precise). We're aged between 5 and 12 and hope we can use this event to get sponsorship for a local charity.
The Nous Galoupe Team
Sumaiyah, Maariyah, Maryam, Zakariyah, Saffiyah, Abdur Raheem, Yacoub, Ibrahim, Adam & Hannah (our younger runners are sitting this one out!).
Thank you to Phoy Dadi (Bilkiss) & Phoy/Mummy (Aminah) for running with us on the day!
What's our target?
To raise as much money as we can to support Noor Ul Islam's Project Rebuild
What is Project Rebuild?
The redevelopment of Noor Ul Islam Masjid. The project was born out of the need to create a purpose built mosque, including community centre to cater for the growing demands of those in the locality. The site which had been used for 25 years as a centrepoint for much of Noor Ul Islam’s great work is now home to an exciting expansion project called ‘Project Rebuild’.
What have we signed up for?
The Vitality Big Half Marathon takes place on the 10th March. We're not ready to run 13.1 miles yet, so for this year we have signed up to the Little Half - our route follows the last 2.4 miles of the main event to finish by the Cutty Sark in Greenwich
