Yes it's true. Routledge and Young have put together a team of 10 to take part in the Sports Relief Challenge...And it is fair to say that most of the team are really excited about it. Yes on Sunday March 16th we'll be throwing off the suits and ties in exchange for lycra and vasaline to try and compete in the Sports Relief Challenge in Southampton
Organised completely by our new Office Administrator Kirsty Chandler, she said "It's nice to be taking part in something that can change so many people's lives...and I'm not talking about the Routledge and Young team. There are children dying all over the world from disease, poverty and malnutrition. It is nice be doing something positive for them"
The Three Directors are all taking part in the challenge too, with Steve Skuce running a mile, Richard Routledge running 3 miles and Jeff Young speed walking 6 miles. The rest of the team are all involved aswell. Karen Skuce, Kirsty Chandler and Simon Routledge are running 6 miles, Nick Long and Andy Fewtrell are running 3 miles and Paul Sheaff is running 1 mile. Lynda Young (Jeff's wife) has also committed to the challenge and will be Power walking the 6 miles along with her husband.
There has been a great deal of banter in the office and many red faces returning after lunchtime training runs. We have already raised over £200 for Sports relief.
Please sponsor us to make the Shin Splints, Torn Hamstrings and New trainers worth it.
