Story

We are the Horsforth Harriers - a fabulous, Leeds based running club, made up of 300+  lovely members who run at all kinds of paces and enjoy being part of such a wonderful club - that gives us so much support and encouragement.

A few years ago, MND took away one of our inspirational runners, so the MNDA charity is particularly important to us as a club. 

On 14th May, almost 60 of us will take part in the Leeds Marathon and some of us will be doing the half marathon too. Each of us have our own stories, our own aims and will run at our own paces, but we all feel the need to lace up with love for the MND  community, wanting to support Rob Burrow., and the charities aiming to improve the lives of those living with this awful disease. For some, this will be their first marathon, for lots of our runners, it is their first. If you can spare any amount to chivvy us all along during  our training and on the day itself, this would be greatly appreciated.

Love

Team Horsforth Harriers
