How do I join the Shelter team?
We have guaranteed places available in the ING New York Marathon for 2008 and we would love you to join the Shelter team. But hurry, there are only a few places left!
Apply today and we will be in touch shortly to answer any questions you may have!
If you have already secured your own place through the ballot, please choose to run for Shelter! There is no minimum fundraising target if you have your own place and you will benefit from the same excellent running package as our charity place runners.
How much do I need to raise?
This year, we are asking our charity runners to raise a minimum of £1,500 for Shelter. If you do raise £1,500 or £2,000 by Friday 9 January 2009, we would be delighted to offer a refund of £200 or £500 respectively towards your costs.
How we will support you
By pledging to raise sponsorship money for Shelter and being a valued member of our team we will support you with:
- Training and motivational tips, suitable for everyone from beginners to experienced runners striving to beat their personal best.
- Top fundraising advice and tips to maximise your sponsorship potential.
- A fantastic Shelter running vest to wear on the day, making sure you'll stand out.
- A free Shelter t-shirt for each of your supporters, as a great souvenir of the day and to help you to spot each other in the crowd.
