Run for the RNLI

RNLI · #1 26th Jul 12, 11:23 AM

The RNLI has charity places available in both the BUPA Great South Run (Portsmouth) and the Royal Parks Half Marathon (London).

If you have considered taking part in these events but missed a place in the ballot, we would love to have you join Team RNLI and help us raise money to end preventable loss of life at sea!

All you need to do is sign up today at www.rnli.org to secure your place and in return you will receive full fundraising support from our team of experts and also some pretty awesome RNLI running stash!

Running the Loch Ness marathon on behalf of RNLI

I wish the RNLI well and all those that run for them but I received not support/acknowledgement from them. Inded, they emailed me several days after my marathon to say ask me to register so they could support me!

I have had no acknowledgement of the funds I have raised for them either.

Just beware of what they promise you and be prepared to run despite their "support"!

I suppose you can be sure they don't spend much on admin!

How awful. I've received a lot of emails from the charities I've raced for. (and got a mention once or twice)
