Get fit in the fight against poverty.  Join us at the Great South Run and Adidas Women's Challenge.

 

The ActionAid Running Team in 2007 raised in access of £100,000 for ActionAid. Thank you so much to everyone who took part and congratulations on achieving your goals. We hope that our 2008 running team will be bigger and raise even more funds for our vital work around the world – good luck everyone!
