Fiona Rumsby took part and completed the Winter Wolf Run on 2nd November 2013 in Leicestershire raising funds for Alpha-1 in memory of her-sister-in law’s father Ben Stockley. Fiona said “I am raising money for the Alpha 1 UK Support Group by taking part in the Winter Wolf Run on Sunday 3 November with a group of friends. The event is an off road 10km run / obstacle course which involves lots of mud, water and a lake swim for those brave enough to face the icy waters. “My sister-in-law’s father, Ben Stockley, passed away in the summer from this incurable genetic disease, and I would like to raise as much money as possible in Ben’s memory”
The Wolf Run is Wild Running – a unique combination of three kinds of off-road running: mud runs, trail runs and obstacle runs. The only Wild Run in the UK, it’s a hardcore 10k run across raw natural terrain, including open ground, woodland, lakes & thick mud.Running in a pack, or as a lone wolf, you’ll tackle a series of tough obstacles – both man-made and natural – designed to test your mental & physical strength, skill and stamina. You’ll run, climb, jump, wade, crawl and swim through a course designed to challenge you on every level. http://www.thewolfrun.com/
A big thank you to Fiona and all who supported her raising funds for Alpha-1 it is very much appreciated.
