Story

12 men have formed an army of hope, faith and courage to take on the ultimate South Coast Challenge.


Spartan Super is where trail running meets 25 obstacles in awe-inspiring and challenging locations. A combination of speed and endurance, this 10K demands your best.

2 of us are also running the Great South 10 mile run October 15th.

We are doing this to raise money for an amazing charity that supports many people but specifically for a wonderful young girl who is close to our heart. 

Elsie is a pocket rocket, full of beans and positivity, she’s full of character and love with no fears - ‘Down’ is not a word in her vocabulary and her only syndrome is the ‘positivity’ she glows every day.

We are raising money so that this charity can continue to do the amazing work and support families like Elsie.

For those who donate £15 or more will be entered in to a raffle - 

1st Prize - £75 voucher of your choice

2nd Prize - £50 Voucher of your choice

3rd Prize - £25 Voucher of your choice

Your name will be entered in to a random draw, therefore please leave your first and last name if you want to be entered in to the raffle.
