Event details

Bath Half Marathon 2010

07 March 2010

The Bath Half Marathon is one of the longest established and most popular city centre road races in the UK. It is also one of the largest charity fundraisers in the South West, raising over £1.3 million for charity last year alone. The course is fast and flat, with amazing crowd support, making it suitable for all abilities - for beginners whose key objective is to complete the course, to more experienced runners looking to beat their personal best time. This two lap traffic free course straddles both sides of the River Avon. The race starts and finishes in Great Pulteney Street, in the heart of the World Heritage City of Bath, surrounded by shopping, restaurants and other family attractions.

Hi, thanks for visiting my page/fundraiser-web.

In Bolivia, there are black markets full of wild animals being sold to hotels, private homes and Circuses. These animals are usually obtained by hunting down the parents or group leaders and then taking the babies to be sold in the black markets. The captured animals are often kept in horrific conditions, are malnourished and some badly abused, Inti Wara Yassi is dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of these beautiful and often endangered species.

 Hundreds of animals are currently being cared for at Inti Wara Yassi but the charity itself is an NGO and receives no funding from the government, all money comes from volunteers and donations. The cost of feeding all these animals, various veterinary bills, cages and equipment is staggering.

I will be running the Bath half Marathon dressed as a monkey to try to raise some awareness and much needed funds for the park. Please dig deep and donate a few pounds so the sanctuary can continue to provide a safe and loving home for abused and injured wildlife.

 Thank you!
