Due to our Cross Country clashing with most organised events, we are organising a 1 mile (and possibly 3 mile) run for Sport Relief.

It is being organised by Benfleet Juniors Running Club,
but we want as many adult members/parents/friends to participate as well.

Sport Relief fever took over Benfleet Running Club on Saturday morning when, in the spring sunshine, over 30 members took part in their own Sport Relief mile. The event was jointly organised between Benfleet Running club, and their junior section Benfleet Juniors Running Club, with the majority of the runners being under 18. The mile lap on the Recreation Ground, Benfleet meant runners could do 1, 3 or 6 miles. The 1 mile run was won by up-and-coming junior Andrew Hair, and the only runner to complete the 6 mile run was junior member Liam Clark, although the real winners were Sport Relief with runners donating a minimum £ 1.00 to compete.
Money raised so far is well over £ 120, with further sponsor money to be collected.

proud to be one of the 4!

Well done Karl et al. Is the money quoted after deduction for your Rayleigh greenhouse (Conservatory)?

In law, defamation (also called vilification, slander, and libel) is the communication of a statement that makes a false claim, expressively stated or implied to be factual, that may harm the reputation of an individual, business, product, group, government or nation. Most jurisdictions allow legal actions, civil and/or criminal, to deter various kinds of defamation and retaliate against groundless criticism.
