Sponsorship Hall of Fame: Yaktrak
We have now added Yaktrak onto the Sponsorship roll of honour.
Not only did the fantastic people at Yaktrak (part of the Specialist group) send us two pairs of super duper gripped shoes for our run but they threw in a couple of pairs for us to auction to. For this generosity we support you – just as you will be supporting us as we run across the ice.
My mum had a pair of these awesome shoes last winter and declared them perfect for getting around the frozen wastes of Kent. Where I was slipping and sliding all over the place in my boots she was as nimble and as secure as you could possibly hope to be. Aside from running I see a massive potential for these shoes and would encourage anyone who hasn’t got a pair, or perhaps has an elderly relative, to rush out and get a pair now – they do, I think, make excellent presents.
Yaktrak, we offer our gratitude to you. For taking the time to give me a call, to offer words of encouragement and for such generosity we are deeply humbled….
my wife is also pretty happy as she thinks the chances of us completing the run without broken legs is now significantly improved….)
Sunday, March 4th, 2012, Philip and Trevor will be running across the frozen ice surface of the world’s largest, oldest and deepest lake, Lake Baikal in Siberia. It's generally considered one of the 10 toughest marathons in the world. Philip and Trevor are running in support of Iain Rennie Hospice at Home, a charity offering specialist and supportive care and advice for patients with cancer and other life threatening illnesses in their homes.
