The 500 lap challenge
Danny Bryden and Joe Boardman are teaming up together again and hoping to raise money for 3 charities. last year they raised over £1500 for the Edinburgh Sick Kids Freinds Foundation. This was only made possible by the generosity of those who supported them in their Parkrun challenge.
This year they want to go one better and involve as many of their friends , family and team mates at ADAC in helping them run or walk 500 laps on Sunday September 17th.
The event will start at 10:30 and there will be refreshments(both hot and cold) available from Mark's Munchies, a new business run by Mark Whitelaw of ADAC who we are delighted to have attending throughout the day.
Although we are hoping for good weather we are planning for a gazebo to be in place.
The laps can be completed by either walking in groups of up to 5 people. It isn't a competitive event but we're hoping that many ADAC athletes will want to take part in some way. Sponsor forms will be available from Julie (Danny's mum) from this Sunday. There is already a Justgiving page set up and the link is below for anyone wishing to donate.
The 3 charities which will benefit are :
NSPKU
EDINBURGH CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL CHARITY
NITH INSHORE RESCUE
