Story

We are Blood, Sweat and Beers,

We are running the Exeter Half Marathon on Sunday 8 February, for Exeter Leukaemia Foundation (ELF)! We need your support, but more importantly your money. A bit about us:

-- Christie is so dedicated to running that after a fairly boozie night out, she decided at 3am to hit a mid 5k run to the Quay. Commitment to the Half or a drunk Chris side quest?

-- Lily is the only member of Blood, Sweat and Beers to run on Christmas Day (commitment). Despite her veganism, her lack of protein cannot hold her back.

-- Alex (Westy) is on the running grind, after overcoming suspected Gout. He will do no training but is speedy.

--Euan is yet to run, but fear not, for his pack of cigs a day means he is going to fly round this Half no problem...

--Toby has hit peak performative running male and has invested in a garmin watch and become a strava merchant after a mere two weeks of his running career.

Any donations will be extremely appreciated and are going to a great, important cause. ELF is a small Devon charity, providing a range of support for blood cancer patients, making invaluable and real difference to those who need it most. We cannot wait to run for such a great cause, and as our team name suggests, the celebrations afterwards! Thank you for your support!

Love,

Blood, Sweat and Beers x
