WTW Staff Complete The London 10K Run
Proud medalists
The end is close!
As many of you who know the WTW team well will be well aware, two brave members of our staff ran the ASICS British 10K London Run on Sunday the 11th of July. Georgie Parker and Carl Garner represented the admin and sales teams at the event and did a brilliant job. For both of our runners this was their first attempt at a fun run and they had the warm muggy weather to contend with.
Carl has been training for slightly longer than Georgie but he stuck with her for the entire race. They finished the course together after 1 hour and 22 minutes, showing the team ethic we would all have expected from them.
CEO Barbara Calvert said “Here at Wall to Wall Communications we like to encourage talent in any shape or form. To this end we are very proud of Carl and Georgie for their splendid efforts in their charity run for The Starfish Greathearts Foundation – a really worthy charity. Congrats guys, we understand there is more where that came from!”
The Starfish Greathearts Foundation is an international development charity, aiming to bring life, hope and opportunity to children in southern Africa who have been orphaned or made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS. At the last count Georgie and Carl had raised nearly £400 with lots still to collect!
If you would like to sponsor Georgie and Carl you can do so for 6 weeks after the race. Just contact one of them to pledge some cash or log on to Virgin Money Giving (link below) and do the whole thing easily and automatically.
