With 20 event professionals already signed up for the Royal Parks Half Marathon in October, our team is halfway there and registration is well ahead of previous years! We have another participant from Park Plaza Hotels in the form of Juliet Barbe – not because she likes running but because of Meeting Needs.
She says: “Truthfully, running and I have a complicated relationship – mostly, I avoid it. But Meeting Needs is a cause I truly believe in, so here I am, lacing up my shoes again. Last year’s challenge was… memorable, let’s say, and I promised myself ‘never again.’ However, the amazing work they do for those in need has pulled me back in.
“I’m ready to push myself, even if it means a lot of grumbling and maybe a few dramatic sighs along the way. Every step I take helps support their vital services. So, please consider sponsoring me, and maybe have an ice bath and a large cup of tea (or beer) waiting at the finish line!”
You don´t need to be a runner – many people walk it! To find out how you can participate in the Royal Parks Half Marathon with Meeting Needs, click here
