Places are filling up fast and Ashfield residents should sign up now to guarantee a place for them and their family at www.sportrelief.com

Ashfield milers will be putting on their Sport Relief socks and warming up for the course at Ashfield School. Sport Relief 2008 is all about challenging yourself, family, friends and colleagues to do something sporty and raise cash.

Carol Hallam, Sports Development Officer at Ashfield District Council said:

“As the countdown to the big day begins we’re looking forward to seeing hundreds of local residents going the distance and getting sponsored for Sport Relief. The 16th March should really be a day to remember as the district gets together for this wonderful cause”.

Milers can choose to do 1, 3 or 6 miles, so can select the distance which is the best challenge for them and make sure they get sponsored while they do it.
