While many sane people were sunning themselves and relaxing on the bank holiday of Monday 25th May, six EWB-UK aficionados volunteered to run the BUPA 10k race in London. Josh Beale, Sachi Findlater, Alexis Glazer, Ruvan Mendis, Tom Newby and Fran Talavera put their months of training into practice and all completed the race with times to be proud of. ‘I never thought I’d do something like this and am so happy to have run the whole race!’ said EWB-UK Training Programme Manager, Fran Talavera. There was a great atmosphere to the day with 12,500 people taking part in the picturesque route through Parliament Square, along Embankment and returning through the city of London to the race finish just outside Buckingham Palace in Hyde Park.

Well done to our runners who have raised £340 for the charity with pledged money still coming in! If you would like to sponsor the team then go to http://www.smartgive.com/showpublicevent.php?url=EWBTeam&ms_id= to donate.
