Thank you for visiting Vicky & Lena's fundraising page.

We are running 4 races, a total of 71.9 miles, throughout 2010 for Macmillan Cancer Support.  We are also doing many of the races that we did last year.

So far we have ran….. the World’s First English Kilomathon on 14^th March which is 26.2 km (16.3 miles), the Edinburgh Marathon on 23^rd May which is 26.2 miles.

Our next challenge is the BUPA Great North Run on 19^th September which is 13.1 miles and the Scottish Kilomathon on 3^rd  October which is 26.2 km (16.3 miles). 

With all the races we are competing in this year we wanted to run for a charity and Macmillan Cancer Support was chosen for very personal reasons to both of us and to support the tremendous job that they do.
