Bath Rugby Foundation want you to be a part of their running team for the 2018 Vitality Bath Half. Whether you’re a seasoned half marathon runner or want to start pounding the pavement, there’s no better place to start, they say, than at the Vitality Bath Half, which is suitable for all abilities. Running as part of the Bath Rugby team means you will help to raise money for the foundation and you will also get all of this included: limited edition Bath Rugby Foundation running vests, hot showers in the Bath Rugby players’ changing rooms, pre- and post-race massages, food and drinks, goody bags, secure bag storage throughout the day, and a training and nutrition plan
You’ll not only raise money for charity but you’re sure to have a lot of fun
with tips on how to perform at your best. They will provide you with the tools you need to get the most out of your fundraising efforts, and Bath Rugby Foundation ask that you raise £250 for their charitable causes. If you’d like to join the team you have two options – you can sign up as an own place runner, or a charity place runner and once you’ve signed up you need to email Halena.Coury@bathrugby.com to receive your information and support pack. Good luck to everyone who enters, and let the training begin! For more: www.bathrugbyfoundation.com | www.bathhalf.co.uk
