Story

The Earlsdon Running Club will be running a combined total of 262 miles for the 2.6 challenge. We were never very good with decimal points!

All the money raised will go to Pass The Smile for Ben, a special named fund at CCLG, for research into rhabdomyosarcoma, a type of childhood cancer. Every step we take will be in the memory of Ben - he loved to run and will always be part of our running club. 

General fundraising has been hit very hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Thousands of fundraising events have been cancelled and many charities, particularly smaller ones, are struggling to maintain services because of this huge reduction in income. 

Thank you for your support.
