Runners wanted to support animals in need at MK Marathon Weekend
The RSPCA are calling on runners of all abilities to take on the MK Marathon Weekend in support of animals who need it most.
Looking for a New Year resolution to kick start 2026? Why not join the MK Marathon Weekend, to get fit and active while supporting a good cause. The RSPC’s Milton Keynes & North Bucks branch are encouraging people to use the event to help raise vital funds for rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming animals in need.
Whether you’re starting your fitness journey or chasing a big challenge, there’s a distance for you. Seasoned runners and those looking to push themselves can opt for the full marathon, with the fundraising target of £350. Those feeling a bit less confident but still seeking a challenge can opt for the half marathon, with a target of £250. There is also a 5-10K option for anyone wanting a fun, shorter run, with a target of £150 (spaces for this option is limited to three places).
The event takes place on May 3rd at 10am, giving applicants four months to train and prepare. Everyone who secures a place and shares a JustGiving page will receive an official RSPCA running vest. Spaces are limited, so don’t wait to book your spot. You can register your interest to join Team Animal at the MK Marathon through the RSPCA registration page.
