A beautiful warm morning on 8th October for the Royal Parks Half Marathon - once again the sun shone brightly and not a cloud in the sky. Our 11 wonderful runners all completed the race, raising over £5,500 for Learn to Love to Read - smashing their target by over £1,000. It's an amazing amount and we are incredibly grateful for all their hard work and perseverance through their months of training.
If you'd still like to donate, it's not too late - every pound will support our mission to make every child a reader. You can donate here through Just Giving.
L2L2R staff member Samreen was there to capture the day in pictures:
