This is ideal if you have already got a place in a race organised around the country, or if you are planning to get a place. Most of these events get full very quickly, therefore, we would suggest registering for the reminder service which can be found on the organisers’ websites wherever appropriate, and you will be informed when the ballot is open.

Please do remember to let us know when you have successfully registered in whichever race to support The Message and we will delighted to help you out:

•    We will help and support you to set up your own fundraising page at www.justgiving.co.uk.
•    We will send you a fundraising pack, including a sponsor form for those sponsors who aren’t online.
•    We’ll provide you with your very own Message top to spread the word when you’re training and taking part in your event
…and however else we can help!

There are some race suggestions below, but for more ideas you could try realbuzz.com, Runner’s World, Doitforcharity.com and Bike Events.
