Its been just over a year since I joined the Beginners Running Group at Ripon Runners...and I absolutely love it.

Snape 10k was my first race following our 0 - 10k beginners group. Since then I have completed a handfull of 10k races. To mark this one year anniversary I would like to use this race as an opportunity to raise some vital funds for YMCA Ripon of which I am Chair of the Board of Trustees. 

YMCA Ripon supports young people aged 16 -25 who are homeless or at risk of being homeless. In addition to providing a community space for all to use. More info can be found by visiting www.riponymca.org
