Calling all own-place charity runners
On Friday the results of the Virgin London Marathon 2010 ballot were released. Are you a lucky own-place winner? If you've secured a place, why not go the extra mile and mark the Marathon's 30th year by running for charity? Register as an own place runner and run for Team RNIB.
Why run for Team RNIB?
Using your place to run for Team RNIB is really rewarding and can be good fun too!
Support and guidance
As an own-place runner for RNIB, there's no pressure to raise a minimum sponsorship fee. We'll also give you training tips, goodies and professional, friendly support.
Be part of a team - Team RNIB!
When you run with us, you'll be surrounded by like-minded people running for the same cause. There's always a great buzz and you'll receive plenty of support from the crowd, especially at our cheering points! Chat to fellow runners via our Team RNIB online community.
Sail through the winter slump
As the nights start drawing in and winter begins, you might feel less inclined to stick to that training schedule. Running for RNIB will help to motivate you as you're helping a good cause.
Life changing
Every day, almost 100 people in the UK will start to lose their sight. RNIB are helping people who have lost their sight find their life again. But right now we can only reach one in three of the people who need us.
When you run for RNIB, you not only take on a huge personal challenge, you help fund vital services for blind and partially sighted people. You help us reach everybody.
