Story

Four men in their forties should have known better, but we have still made the decision to enter the 2018 Cambridge half marathon (alcohol was involved in the process and some of us are trying to keep up with our fitter, better looking wives and girlfriends who did it last year).

Training has begun in earnest and Tim, Liam, Matt and Rich are now less than 100 days away from a grueling 13.1 mile run around the beautiful city of Cambridge (I'm betting it won't look so beautiful through sweat stained eyes on March 4th!).

As you get to enjoy laughing at us as we train (either to our faces, or behind our backs... we're adults, we can take it), we're hoping you'll also put your hand in your pocket, deep into your pocket, pull out your purse or wallet and donate to a great cause - Street Aid supports homeless people in Cambridge with grants to help them get off the street and into work etc. All donations will be gratefully received and the good people at Lloyds bank have agreed to match the first £500.
