Watch Nick Chan’s video - recorded while still out of breath from running the London marathon!

Challenge yourself and feel the thrill of racing around Hyde Park Corner without any cars, then past Buckingham Palace, Big Ben and through the beautiful autumn trees in four Royal Parks.

Register to guarantee your place in our team of 25 fundraising runners for October’s prestigious Royal Parks Half Marathon.

Anyone can enter: you don’t have to be a student or to have any prior involvement with People & Planet. Runners just need to put down a refundable fundraising deposit of £250 and pay a £20 registration fee.

About the run

In 2008, the Royal Parks Half Marathon was the first ever London half marathon and People & Planet has been involved since the start. The 2008 run attracted 7,500 runners and last year’s almost doubled that. Each year 19 super-star runners ran in the beautiful sunshine raising an incredible £8,500 for People & Planet’s poverty, human rights and environmental work. Thank You!

This year’s run will take place on 10 October 2010 (10/10/10!), plenty of time to get trained and get fundraising!

How to Register

If you’re interested and/or have any questions, please drop Kt a line saying “hello” using the box on the right, or by email or call her on 01865 245 678.

To register you will need to download the registration form and send it in to us. We need to have received your completed registration form and cheques by 30 June.

We’ll confirm receipt of your registration and guarantee your place in the run. Once you’ve registered we can support you in setting up an online justgiving page that will make it easy to raise the money.

Why run for People & Planet?

Money you fundraise for People & Planet will help us develop award winning campaigns to protect the environment, defend human rights and end world poverty. People & Planet tackles the root causes of poverty. We don’t provide charity and hand-outs to those in need, but challenge the structures and inequalities that keep them poor. This is why your fundraising will really make a difference to people’s lives. Your money will help us provide support to a generation of young people keen to change the world around them and take a stand on what they believe in. Find out more about us with our two minute tour.
