The Royal Parks Foundation half marathon has become one of the Capital’s most prestigious running events, and The Blue Cross is delighted to be part of this event for the third year running.

Looking for a place? Then look no further!

The Blue Cross has 250 guaranteed places in this spectacular race, and we would be delighted to welcome you as part of our Blue Cross team.  All we ask is for a non-refundable registration fee and for you to endeavour to raise a minimum amount of sponsorship. So to avoid disappointment, register now for your Blue Cross guaranteed place here.

Join The Blue Cross team

When you join The Blue Cross Team, whether through one of our guaranteed places, or if you have secured your own place, you will be able to set up your own personalised fundraising page and download your runner's pack crammed with top tips on training, nutrition and preparation for the big day as well as fundraising ideas and advice.

As part of The Blue Cross team we will support you all the way with your fundraising, your training, and providing you with your very own Blue Cross running vest.  On the day our cheering team will be there to cheer you around the course and to greet you at the end with a warm Blue Cross smile.

So what are you waiting for? Register today to join The Blue Cross team here and help us continue caring for all the animals brought in to The Blue Cross.
