This Saturday is YMCA Founders Day, marking 182 years of YMCA. Starting from humble beginnings in a small room in London to becoming the largest youth charity spanning the world, we're incredibly proud to be doing our bit in the Black Country.
So to celebrate, whilst on a break from their 6 Superhalfs Challenge, Steve & Grace thought why not throw in one more Half Marathon for good measure!
They'll be running between our YMCA Hubs across the Black Country:
9am Start at YMCA Small Street, Walsall
9.50am Arrive at YMCA Western Gateway, West Bromwich
10.15 Leave YMCA Western Gateway, West Bromwich
11.40 Finish at YMCA City Gateway, Wolverhampton
If you spot them along the route on Saturday, give them a toot of the horn or a shout to show your support! Or if you'd like to sponsor the challenge to raise £10K for youth work, you can donate on our Justgiving page: https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/ymcasuperhalfs
