**** Updated ****
Due to the postponement of the Edinburgh marathon in 2020 due to Covid-19, we are completing our own "virtual" version.
We will run the full marathon distance in one go - planned for Saturday 15th August 2020.
Your support is much appreciated and thank you so much for the donations so far :-)
Take care
Bex and Joel
We are raising money for a charity called Eco-ACTIVE which is based in North East London. Eco-ACTIVE has a mission to educate and inform young people, families and communities to live and work sustainably. This is a cause close to our hearts.
Eco-ACTIVE does this by creating local community garden projects, delivering education on our precious planet to schools, working on the green space available in London's urban centers (E.g. lets make the postcode E5 10x greener) and organising forest schools to enable children to discover / connect with the countryside.
Some recent work can be found here :

We would be really delighted if you are able to contribute to this great cause and could give us some added motivation to get around 42.2 km / 26.2 miles (aiming without walking or stops) :-)
Thank you so much for your time and consideration. Rebecca and Joel
