Our Emailer

And so it starts... with plenty of man hours behind us, with awesome support from Round Table and The Sunflower Fund... and with many thanks to our Main Sponsor - BHP Billiton... as well as our associate sponsors, Dust-A-Side and Nedbank... the big run is getting closer!

With less than 30 days to the start of our run... we welcome you all to following our journey over the next 45 days or so, hoping to raise R1/2m in the process...

We hope to see you on or near the route, at one of the associated events or simply adding to the initiative with a small donation or by spreading the awareness of what we are doing and the cause we are doing it for.

Thank you for supporting 350Miles4Marrow campaign in 2010!

Background on the Fundraising Event

Three Members of Round Table Southern Africa will be running approximately 350 Miles4Marrow in March 2010, with the aim to raise in excess of ½ million Rand in aid of those suffering with Leukaemia.

Following a route starting in the Lowveld city of Nelspruit, the runners run in relay (and together on shorter days) and wind their way uphill and over the Mpumalanga Escarpment, through the Highveld, then pass through Pretoria and end on The Melrose Arch Piazza.

You may wonder why?

“Let’s suffer a bit and run an obscure distance along an obscure route... and hopefully this will encourage South Africans and others to support a wonderful cause like The Sunflower Fund and ultimately those who suffer from Leukaemia.” Guy Crichton, Round Tabler and 350 Miles4Marrow Runner
