Story

A group of ambitious CBS-newsers are dusting off the running shoes and heading to the Royal Parks for a half marathon, to raise money for Rory Peck Trust.

Thousands of journalists lose their lives each year on the job - and many brave souls do so without the backing of a big company. Rory Peck Trust is a beacon for freelancers in need and their families, and we are thrilled to support them.

Above all, we endeavor to honour the legacies of Paul Douglas and James Brolan who were tragically killed in Iraq in 2006. We will not forget them. Thank you for joining us in remembering Paul & James.

Our runners are Terry Sharples, Cath Longbottom, Charlie Crisp, Ed Tickner, Ian Lee, Mike Redgrave, Freya Lord Jones and Claire Day.
