On November 1st, Tom Pope, Daniel Large, Simon Chivers and Oliver Morgan will be running 26.12 miles across the 5 boroughs of the Big Apple in the ING New York City Marathon.
3 of us, Tom, Dan and Simon, will be flying over to Meet Olly in the USA to join 37,000 others and raise money and awareness for the Multiple Sclerosis Resource Centre, a charity with much personal affiliation.
As a four man team, we have a combined sponsorship total of £10,000 and we need your kind help and support in reaching our target. The UK boys will be running a number of events including quiz nights, football, barbeques as well as live music whereas Olly will be arranging a secret auction from New York to help us reach our goals.
