Shell Chester Half Marathon · 27 February 2008

The Cathedral receives no funding from the State. We raise funds through our own endeavours and through the generosity of our visitors, congregation, and friends. Your donations ensure Chester Cathedral is preserved for future generations.

Story

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.  It is not too late, even though the run is over, so please dig deep and sponsor us online.

Well all of us from the Cathedral completed the 13.1 miles to the finish:

Chris Walton - 1:47:52
Chris Humphries - 1:55:30
Russ Millhouse - 2:06:30
Alex Cummins - 2:22:55
David Mayer - 2:28:40

A pretty good effort all round but a few aching joints and blistered toes to contend with in the aftermath - nothing to dampen the elation of getting round though.

All funds raised will be put towards completing the restoration of the Chapter House window, which was installed in 1872, but has now been removed for repair.  All being well, it will be back in its rightful place in August.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us; The Chester Cathedral Development Trust 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.

Don't worry if you are internet shy - we would welcome your donation by post or pop in to the Cathedral Office at 12 Abbey Square where you can fill in our sponsorship form at the Reception and we can claim gift aid on your behalf.

So please sponsor us now - thank you very much indeed!

With best wishes from
