In our series featuring our runners and walkers in The Royal Parks Half Marathon, Hollie Brodie of Chew Events – who is not a runner – explains how her colleagues persuaded her to do some fund-raising for Meeting Needs:
“I have always had a passion for fitness, more so on the weight training side, and find it has massively improved my mental health over the years. Since working at Chew and being around colleagues who like to run, it gave me the idea to add a half marathon to my ’30 new things before I turn 30’ list. Once the Meeting Needs run came to light, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to tick it off the list, complete a run with some of my colleagues, as well as doing it for a great cause like Meeting Needs!
“I am by no means a runner, so a lot of training is going into this but, nevertheless, I am looking forward to the challenge!”
The Royal Parks Half Marathon is a marvellous event industry gathering in London´s beautiful parks, starting and finishing in Hyde Park. If you would like to take part in The Royal Parks Half Marathon on Sunday, October 13, 2024 and raise funds for Meeting Needs, please contact kconway@meetingneeds.org.uk
