The Royal Parks Half Marathon celebrates its 10th birthday this year and ISWAN is delighted that six supporters will be running on Sunday 8th October to raise money for our organisation.

Our marathon runners this year are:

Emily Richmond, Hetty Pugh and Steven Williams – International Registries (The Marshall Islands Registry), London office

James Lawson and Jessica Swallow – The Shipowners’ Club

Garry Strickland – Sharpness Dock and Bristol Port Welfare Committee

This stunning central London half marathon takes in the capital's world-famous landmarks on closed roads, and four of London's eight Royal Parks – Hyde Park, The Green Park, St James's Park and Kensington Gardens. Since 2008, more than 112,000 runners have crossed the finish line raising over £30m for more than 750 charities, so ISWAN is excited to be a part of the event in this special year.

We would like to wish our runners the best of luck for their training and the upcoming marathon. Please follow our Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn accounts for updates.

To show your support for our marathon runners, you can donate via Virgin Money Giving by clicking on their names above.
