Forrest Group's Runaway Success

02 Dec 2009

Back in August, we published a news story about five board members of Forrest Group who were training to run the New York Marathon and raise funds for Yorkhill Children's Foundation.

Well, the intrepid team, including their two "Trainers", flew out to The Big Apple and completed the race on November 1st, running the 26 mile route which wound its way over five bridges before finishing in Central Park.

And as part of a year-long programme of support for Yorkhill Children's Foundation, the runners raised an unbelievable £25,000 in sponsorship. On their return, they paid a visit to the hospital to hand over their cheque.

We'd like to congratulate the team on their achievement, and thank them - and all those who sponsored them - for this incredible support.
