MARATHON DES SABLES 2007
Hi, and welcome to our charity fundraising page
Please visit our official website WWW.SAHARARUN.CO.UK
or why not read our blogs at http://sgswmds2007.blogspot.com
In March/April 2007 we will be taking part in 'THE TOUGHEST FOOTRACE IN THE WORLD' the Marathon des Sables (MDS).
This is a 6 day event covering 250km across the Sahara Desert, in daytime temperatures of 40c and but dropping to 0c on a night.
We will be carrying all our kit/food for the duration of the event, the only thing we don't carry is a tent.
For more information on the event, please see our own MDS page, here you will find updates on where we are with training and during the event on our progress, or visit our blog for latest training and sponsorship news. Addresses are at the top of this page
We are raising money for two charities - the NSPCC and the Harrogate Theatre. More information on our two charities can be found by following the links below
"The NSPCC is the UK's leading charity specialising in child protection and the prevention of cruelty to children. It is the only children's charity with statutory powers, enabling it to act to safeguard children."
“The Harrogate Theatre Forward Appeal will secure the future of Harrogate Theatre, a Grade II listed building, and so ensure access to the arts for the whole local and regional community, the continuation of quality theatre, individual art programmes and our very productive outreach and youth programme"
Please help both charities by sponsoring us on this website.
Your help is hugely appreciated
Regards
Simon & Steve
