Calling all women!
On Sunday 13 May, over 12,500 women will take part in the Women's 10k in Glasgow. This year we are excited to have a group running together to help raise money for Tearfund and we'd love you to join us. There's no need to be super-fit to join in; whether you walk the route or run to beat your personal best, it will be a fun day with crowds of well-wishers and pipers to spur you on.
How to enter
To enter, all you need to do is sign up on their website by clicking
here. You'll need to fill in your personal details, answer a few questions and pay the £20 entry fee. Then, let us know you've signed up by emailing your name, contact number and that you've entered the Women's 10k to
jo.mummery@tearfund.org
Running as a group
If you'd like to run with others from our team, please state your 'Predicted 10k Race Time' as
1hr 05 - 1hr 10. This does not commit you to completing the race in that time, but will mean that we will be put in the same 'start group'. If you are planning on walking, you will need to select this option on the form. However, please do feel free to contact
jo.mummery@tearfund.org and she will try and put you in touch with other Tearfund walkers.
NB: Select 'No' when it asks 'Are you entering as part of a team' - this option is only for people who are paying together.
Tshirts
We'd love to give all women running in aid of Tearfund your very own Tearfund t-shirt. Please contact
jo.mummery@tearfund.org saying that you are entering the Women's 10k and stating your size (Small, Medium, or Large) and what address to send it out to.
Sponsorship
One of the easiest ways to start raising money is to set up your very own
Virgin Money Giving or
Just Giving page. It only takes a few clicks and once you've made your page, all you need to do is share the link on your Facebook status, or in an email to all your friends. The donations go straight to Tearfund without you having to handle any money.
Celebrating
There will be a Tearfund station at the end of the race to celebrate and thank all those that have taken part. Refreshing drinks and home made tray bakes are guaranteed!
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Jo Mummery on 0141 332 3621 or email
