Fancy that.... NACC can offer you a place in any major city marathon except London! You
name a marathon we will see if there are places still available. The New
York is a favourite – places for New York go well before the closing
date in September. Pick up that phone, make your request and we will see
what we can do. In the meantime get your running shoes on and start
training!

London
Marathon - 25th April 2010
Small charities like NACC are unable to obtain
places for the London Marathon (we are 376th on their list of new
charities application and have been since 2003 so we are unlikely to get
places for the foreseeable future!) However, and to our great delight,
during the past 5 years over 200 people have pledged to run in the
London Marathon in support of NACC and well over 60% were successful in
their application, raising a fantastic £150,341.98!
The ballot for 2010 will first open on 27th April –
the day after the 2009 race.
Click here to apply
Don’t miss your opportunity to apply and run for
NACC during our 30th Anniversary! We would love to have your support
during our 30th Anniversary Year.
Why not apply with friends, colleagues and family
members to make it a memorable event? We can offer you a sponsor form,
running vest,
your very own webpage on JustGiving
and literature to present to your sponsors.
