Recruiting staff for the Sheffield Half Marathon in April

Are you an avid jogger or do you regularly take part in Parkrun? We’re recruiting #TeamHallam staff for the Sheffield Half Marathon in April!

We’re looking for staff to join 24 fellow colleagues who’ve already agreed to be a part of #TeamHallam and run the Sheffield Half Marathon on Sunday 9 April for the Hallam Fund.

You will be raising money for students from care backgrounds, estranged from their families, and young carers to help improve social inclusion and ensure family breakdown does not act as a barrier to education, opportunity and success. The money you raise will help give students who’ve grown up in an atmosphere of uncertainty and insecurity the support, recognition and motivation to progress through their studies. Donations can be made via our Just Giving page and the target is £5000.

As part of #TeamHallam you can receive discounted entry to the race and Hallam Active are offering #TeamHallam runners free gym membership from Wednesday 1 February until race day.  This gives you free access to City and Collegiate gym facilities, all fitness classes, City Athletic Stadium and senior fitness instructor Nathan Brumley’s services to help you develop a personalised training programme.

If you are keen to run the Half Marathon for the Hallam Fund, please email Danielle Russell d.russell@shu.ac.uk in the Development and Alumni Relations team by Thursday 9 February.
