Out and about

The Great Cambridgeshire Run 2008 - Sunday 21st September 2008, Wimpole Hall

Sign up now! It's nearly time...

Whether you’re looking for a physical challenge, a social gathering or a kick start to a healthier way of life, this is the run for you; it’s also a fantastic way to raise money for two great charities...

Run around the hall!

Our great fun run is taking place on Sunday 21st September, so it's high time you fish out the odour-eaters (other brands of trainer-tamers are also available!) to ensure your running shoes are flowery-fresh before then.

September 21st is just around the corner and we want as many of you to sign up as possible, so don't delay - sign up today!

It's good for you... and it's good for us!

Increase your heart rate and increase the coffers of two very worthwhile causes by joining in the Great Cambridgeshire Run.

Any sponsorship money you raise will be divided equally between BBC Radio Cambridgeshire's Trustline charity, which supports local causes in this county, and the British Heart Foundation who will give a big, hearty and heartfelt 'thank you' for all your effort.

Ooh - it all sounds a bit too much like hard work!

Not at all! We've devised a number of different routes so there's bound to be one to suit you, no matter what your level of fitness.

• A half marathon (13.1 miles)
• A 4.5 mile run
• A 1 mile run
• A 9.5 mile walk

And all in the gorgeous surroundings of Wimpole Hall and its gardens.

Join our sports team - raring to go!

Tell your friends...

We're hoping that at least 200 of you will sign up and get yourselves sponsored for one of these runs, so make sure you spread the word. Tell your family, tell your friends, tell your local running club - in fact, tell complete strangers - what a great way of striking up a conversation!
