Thank you for visiting our fundraising page - donations are still being accepted for VETAID now we have completed the Marathon.

**************************************************************

Stop Press!

Yes they really did do it! Relay marathon completed in 4 hours 14 minutes.

Congratulations to the team.

***************************************************************

...Once upon a time in a vet laboratory in Scotland the cattle health team were discussing fitness and running when a little voice suggested entering a marathon. This was quickly downgraded to running part of a marathon and the "Cowboy and The Vets" relay team was formed. The first event for this highly tuned group of athletes is the Edinburgh Marathon 2008 when we will take a jaunt through Edinburgh and along the coast of the Firth of Forth to raise funds for VETAID. www.vetaid.org

*****************************************************************************

You will know us as a relative, friend, colleague, customer or as a recipient of our technical advice at Biobest. No matter which, you will be pleased to hear that based on individual training reports we are suffering in various ways as we strive to peak for the big day. Please use this page to donate hard cash in recognition of our efforts to support Vetaid and its projects targeted at improving food security in Africa.

*****************************************************************************

The marathon is run Sunday 25th May but this site will remain live for several months after that so you have plenty time to make your sponsorship payment .

*****************************************************************************

**STOP PRESS** In an unprecedented commitment to developing fitness for future events Biobest Business Development Manager Ian has decided to give up his health enhancing pint of Guinness a night for a week. He has donated the £20 saved from this to the team to kick start the page off.

*****************************************************************************

Your support is greatly appreciated.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor use: Vetaid will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

If you wish to pledge funds for collection by a member of the team please contact us at Biobest on 0131 4402628 or enquiry@biobest.co.uk
