    Story

    We are running the Shinfield 10k on 7th May 2018 as our original aim (the Reading half marathon) was cancelled due to snow all in aid of a local charity Remembering Reece. Reece was only 5 weeks away from his third birthday when he passed away from Leukaemia. The little superhero had endured high dose chemo, a relapse, more high dose chemo and radiotherapy followed by a bone marrow transplant. Devestatingly he relapsed again shortly after the bone marrow transplant and there were no more treatment options available. His family are living in a nightmare, they do not want their son to be forgotten and are throwing themselves into fundraising to buy a holiday home to give children battling cancer in Reading and Oxford free holidays. The Team Reece runners are:

    Gisela Blackburn, Emma Burton, Richard Chambers, Geoff Davies, Kaleigh-Jane Scott, Samantha Viner-Smart, Carl Ward, Hayley Ward, Katie Williams

    There will be a paw patrol theme (we are currently thinking of ideas to make this happen) please come along and cheer on these amazing runners! Thank you so much for supporting Remembering Reece (www.rememberingreece.com)

      Following yesterday's half marathon cancellation, we've decided to enter the #teamReece runners who were due to run it (if they can make it) to the Shinfield 10k. Its on Monday 7th May at 9:30am and although it's not a half marathon the runners put in all the training and we hope this will honour the sponsorship and give them a chance to show off their vests and outfits. If anyone else would like to join in please do, the link is here https://www.entryhub.co.uk/2018-shinfield-10k fingers crossed for no snow in May 🤞🏼🏃🏻🏃🏼‍♀️

      Unfortunately the Reading half Marathon has been cancelled due to the snow. I'm so disappointed for our runners who have put in so much time and training but everyone's safety must come first. We hope they may rearrange but if not we will arrange something else to honour the sponsorship you have so kindly given. Thank you for all of your support, we will update asap
