Major Marathon Runs 2010
World's First Kilomathon on 14th March 2010

Looking for a new Running challenge in 2010 and be a part of NACC History?

Then take part in the World’s First Kilomathon from Nottingham to Derby on 14th March 2010. The Kilomathon (pronounced Kil-om-athon) is a 26.2 Kilometre Road Race (16.3 Miles).

Ideal preparation for a spring marathon – 6 weeks before the London Marathon and 8 weeks before the Paris Marathon; running from Nottingham to Derby and taking place in the picturesque Elvaston Castle Country Park. Although NACC doesn’t have places for this race, enter online through the Ballot and choose to run for NACC and become NACC’s first runners in this inaugural event. Further information is available at www.kilomathon.com/?england

Entries are on a first-come, first-served basis until race limit is reached. 

The closing date for online entries is 17th February 2010.


London Marathon - 25th April 2010

Small charities like NACC are unable to obtain places for the London Marathon (we are 376th on their list of new charities application and have been since 2003 so we are unlikely to get places for the foreseeable future!) However, and to our great delight, during the past 5 years over 200 people have pledged to run in the London Marathon in support of NACC and well over 60% were successful in their application, raising a fantastic Ł150,341.98! The ballot for 2010 will first open on 27th April – the day after the 2009 race. Click here to applyDon’t miss your opportunity to apply and run for NACC during our 30th Anniversary! We would love to have your support during our 30th Anniversary Year.  Why not apply with friends, colleagues and family members to make it a memorable event? We can offer you a sponsor form, running vest, your very own webpage on JustGiving and literature to present to your sponsors.
