On Tuesday 29th March the ‘Run Like A Girl’ set out on their charity mission!

The team were running as part of the ongoing “Challenge a Mummy to raise some money” campaign which aims to raise £1000 for Warwick Hospital’s Maternity Unit to enable them to buy one of 5 needed specialist chairs which fold out into a bed allowing Dads to stay over night in those first precious hours.

The team of ladies from the group dressed up as superheroes and set upon an ‘out and back’ challenge where they were to run out as far as possible for 20 minutes and then turn around wherever they were and try to make it back to the start in 19 minutes! At the end of the run each team members’ total distance was recorded and added together  to make a combined distance travelled.

We are delighted to announce that the total distance travelled by the Run Like A Girl Team on Tuesday was

272.76kms – That is the distance from Leamington Spa to The Pennines!

The three closest guesses were:

1st Place Ardencote Manor Spa Day!  303kms Lucy Husband

2nd Place Pamper Hamper – 312kms Nikki Baker Mills

3rd Place Box of Chocolates: 333kms Elizabeth Hopkins

Congratulations to our winners and thank you again to everyone who took part!
