Entry fee:
£50
+ £2.50 booking fee
Your place will be subsidised by TOFS. Your entry fee goes towards the admin fees that the race organisers charge us.
Fundraising commitment:
£400
Charity places come at a cost to TOFS so we set a minimum amount (before Gift Aid) that we would expect a participant to raise for a subsidised place.
But you don’t have to stop there! Most of our runners raise a lot more than the minimum!
