Story

Thanks for visiting 50/50/50 - we are aiming to raise £100,000 for the Christie in 2012 and 2013. This started with the 50 mile run in September 2012. That was basically 2 marathons, give or take. We had a Santa Fun Run on December 9th 2012. We also organised a 50k bike ride in April 2013 in the beautiful Peak District and now we are planning another 50mile team challenge soon - more details on www.505050Challenge.com. Please see the Team Page below to see the overall fund raising effort and total.

Many of us know friends and family who have benefited from Christie's great work on cancer. We want to help them to help more people in the future, and to thank them for their special care for our dear friends.

Why 50/50/50? Well, it started with 50 runners or teams of runners running 50 miles to raise 50k, hence the 3 x 50. Oh, and it was Simon's 50th last year!  We went past 50k so we raised the target to give something to aim at in 2013!!

So, please get involved and sign up for the bike ride at www.505050challenge.com. It will be a great event, fun and we won't forget it for a while :)
