Great West Run 2012

On Sunday 6th May 2012 Martin Carlton,Tom Beddow and Kelly Hughes from the Backline Outbase will be running, walking or crawling for Charity when they enter the Great West Run on behalf Macmillan Cancer.

The run is a 13.1 mile road race which takes place around the City of Exeter.

Kelly and Martin have ran the race before however it is ‘Big Pete’s’ first time at anything like this so it will be a massive challenge which he is well up for!!

They are hoping to achieve the following times:

Kelly - 2 hours
Martin – 2hours 30 minutes
Pete – 3 hours 30 minutes(Due to unforseen circumstances Pete will be replaced by Tom Beddow)

Starting from now until the start of the race there will be regular up dates on the Backline website on how their training is going.

Backline are sponsoring all 3 of them and hope that we raise as much money as possible for Macmillan.

If you would like to sponsor them then please either phone on 01395 239328 or e-mail kellyhughes@backlinelogistics.co.uk, or alternatively you can go to
