We’d like to say a massive thank<br />

you and good luck to our London<br />

Marathon team<br />

We all know February is our shortest month, but it is also one<br />

in which our London Marathon team will take on some of their<br />

longest training runs. We have a fantastic team of 25 running to<br />

help us support kidney patients and their families, and would like<br />

to say a massive thank you to everyone for their commitment to<br />

this particular challenge. The days are getting longer and soon<br />

set to get warmer (we promise), so it won’t be long until you are<br />

on the start line reaping the rewards of all your hard work.<br />

Away from the long training runs, our amazing team has<br />

been fundraising here there and everywhere, from birthday<br />

collections to Christmas quizzes and St Valentine’s Day raffles.<br />

They have put in such a gigantic effort and are well on their way<br />

to smashing through the £40,000 mark.<br />

To the team and all of your support<br />

teams: you are amazing, thank you.<br />

Ps. If you have a place in the <strong>2019</strong> London<br />

Marathon, we would love to welcome you<br />

to the team and our post-race celebration<br />

at Central Hall, Westminster. Simply<br />

contact the team<br />
