Marathons are a challenge met by gritty determination, committed training and a healthy diet. But your reward for all that effort is to become a hero for the day, basking in the roar of the crowds and the glorious finish line.
You’ll also be a hero in the eyes of the children and young people you’ll be supporting – imagine achieving your goal and giving a disabled child the chance to lead a more active childhood.
Whizz-Kidz Events team has years of experience in fundraising through marathons - some of us have even run one or two! We're here to help you every step of the way. Whether you want to run London or go further afield we’d love you to run for Whizz-Kidz.
