Croft Half Marathon for Harrogate Homeless Project Ltd

Jenni Brown is raising money for Harrogate Homeless Project Ltd

Running GP Croft Motor Circuit Half - November · 30 November 2025

The Harrogate Homeless Project is Harrogate district's only direct access hostel, providing emergency accommodation and support for homeless people. Only 13% of our running costs are met through statutory funding, so we constantly need to raise money in order to continue.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'll be running my first Half Marathon at Croft Circuit on 30 November. Never run further than 10k before. This is either a really good, or a really stupid, idea. Please help me to make it a good idea by donating to the very worthy cause and help Harrogate Homeless Project to keep doing their excellent work.

UPDATE: 31 August 25 - Up to 9 miles for my long runs, and my legs haven't fallen off yet. The training plan ramps up from this week with four runs a week, strength training with weights, mobility training, swimming and I've now added cycling. Joined a gym even though I have rarely darkened the doorstep of the gym in the past. All to ensure I can run that half marathon in a decent time and raise loads of money to help people who are homeless in Harrogate.

UPDATE: 22 October 25 - Up to 10 miles for the weekly long run and a total of 30 miles a week. The long runs go up to 11 miles next week. 5 weeks, 3 days to go until the half marathon. Eeek.
