Charity Event

The Marath-Ox is (hopefully) going to be an annual event – it is not quite a Marathon and will take place along the Middlewood Way on 7th April starting at 10am at Tytherington http://www.macclesfield-outdoors.co.uk/places/middlewoodway.html.We will be running from Tytherington to Marple and back again (20 miles). This event will be good practice for those of you in training for the London Marathon or as a team building exercise for your employees/colleagues or just for those of you who want to have a go. Registration/entry will be £10.00 (you will receive a sponsorship pack and a T-shirt to wear on the day) – watch this space for further details and how to register for this event…in the meantime please acknowledge your interest by selecting to attend this event.

We hope to raise £2000+ from this event and the Oxfamily Fun Run on the 8th, £1700 of which will build a classroom for education-hungry children in the places like Haiti – a gift available from the Oxfam Unwrapped brochure of alternative gifts. http://www.oxfam.org.uk/shop/oxfam-unwrapped.If you cannot attend this event but like to donate a little money (gift-aided if possible) please either drop the cash off at the shop stating it is sponsorship money for the Marath-Ox or go to http://www.justgiving.com/Oxfam-Macclesfield-Marath-Ox
