On Sunday 16th October, Cheltenham and Gloucester Hospitals Charity will be holding a 999 Relay Marathon where teams will work together to get from Cheltenham Hospital to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital, and back again.

The 999 marathon is actually a relay marathon, so the idea is to recruit a team of between 6-10 amazing members to walk or run the 26 miles between everyone. This means anyone can take part, not just the crazy (but awesome) people who actually want to run 26.2miles by themselves! And what we'd love to see is each team coming together as a whole to finish the last mile together.

Our route could not have been made possible without the help of the wonderful team at Churchdown Fire Station, who have very kindly offered us the use of their station for this event.
