We hope to name the running teams on 30 August which will lead into a shoe fitting and promotion morning on Saturday, September 3rd. Any boy selected will need a decent pair of sneakers as they have a lot of running ahead of them. Thanks to Simon and his team at Stirling Sports, Northlands they will have the opportunity to get fitted on September 3rd and will be able to purchase at discounted price.
Many people have asked me where the boys actually go. Below is the general route that each team will take. They will drive to their destination and start the run the next day, Thursday, 22 September.
