On 3 November Team Pullen are hitting the streets of New York for the NYC marathon, with the goals of completing the marathon and still talking to each other at the end! Matt hits a special birthday milestone that weekend and it has always been his dream to celebrate by doing the NY marathon with Fern. Somehow Alison was persuaded to join too and Ellie will be there to cheer us on! We have done the training (and the carb loading) and now we 'just' need to power through 26.2 miles.

Getting through those miles won't always be easy so we hope you will give us a virtual cheer along the way and, if you are able, consider donating to one of our chosen charities, GiveOut and Sarcoma UK. We have chosen these charities because of the important work they each do for causes we feel passionate about - fighting for equal rights for LGBTQ+ individuals; and funding research into better detection and treatment of sarcomas (bone and soft tissue cancers).

More details about each of the charities are on our fundraising pages which you can access via the links below. We have organised our places in the marathon via Sports Tours so any money raised goes directly to the charities and the vital work they each do.

Thank you for your support and here's to celebrating at the finish (hopefully with 3 medals and birthday cake!)

Team Pullen - Alison, Matt, Fern & Ellie xx
