Runnings is something many of the First Days Staff and volunteers are passionate about. Whether it's shuffling around a half or full marathon course, committing to running over 2000km in a year or becoming World Record holders (yes really), Challenge events are also a great way to support the charity - getting fit and achieving a goal while helping First Days support local children really does mean that everyone is a winner.

 

The events below are ones that we have guaranteed places available for.  If you already have your own place at one of these events, or any other, you can still be part of #teamFD. Just drop an email to annette@firstdays.net for more information on how you can get involved.
