'GO-GO' RUN & '7 DAYS 7 MARATHONS'
Our Go-Go run on Saturday November 9th attracted 30 runners on the Arakawa river, who chose either the 55km, 22km or 10km courses in beautiful autumn sunshine. It ended at a care home in Saitama where the kids for whom they were raising funds, cheered them in. Not a dry eye in the house! What's more, the run raised sufficient funds to install 4 Mac Books in the home, much to the delight of the kids, and allowing YouMeWe to get another step nearer to realizing their dream of installing computers in every care home in Japan.
If that was not enough, one of our intrepid members, David Sweet chose the day to start his epic '7 Days 7 Marathons' expedition, ending 300kms later at a Fukushima children's home. We are pleased to report David successfully completed his epic feat (feet?!) and was welcomed by cheering kids as he crossed the finishing line at the home. An incredible achievement which in itself, raised over Y500,000.
