How we'll support you

We'll send you your own fundraising packs, sponsor forms, running vests - everything we can do to help you maximise your sponsorship.
You'll receive a Marathon Training Guide, written by a qualified personal trainer, detailing all you need to know on training, nutrition and avoiding injuries. You'll also get a beginners or advanced training schedule.
You'll receive weekly email newsletters with up to the minute training advice and fundraising tips.
We'll organise pre-marathon get-togethers, both in person and virtually, to give you a chance to meet the rest of the team, get some top tips for event day, and learn more about the MS Trust. This includes a day with a personal trainer who will take you on a run followed by top training tips on everything from gels and foam rolling, to nutrition and running shoes.
Post-race reception close to the finish line with hot showers, physio, massage, refreshments - somewhere you can meet up with friends and family in comfort.
Support from us all at the MS Trust. We believe in the personal touch when it comes to our runners - with a small charity, it's hard not to get personal - and we're there for you every step of the way!
The satisfaction of knowing that every penny you raise will count for people with MS.

The MS Trust really is a fantastic charity and I am so glad to be welcomed as a fundraiser. I will without doubt carry on raising as much as I possibly can for a long, long time. You guys are the best!
