Run for AMREF in 2010

London Marathon 2007 RunnerAMREF has places in two of Europe’s biggest endurance events this year, and we would love you to be a part of our team!

Bupa London 10K — 31 May 2010

First up is the BUPA London 10K on bank holiday Monday, May 31, one of London’s premier running events. This unique course goes past some of London’s most famous landmarks, including the London Eye, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament. Buckingham Palace provides the backdrop for both the start and finish.
