Sport Relief is back on Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd March 2014 encouraging people to get involved in something sporty to raise money for a very good cause indeed! Run, swim or cycle in the brand new Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Games and help make this year the best yet!
So, what are us bloggers doing to show our support? Well we have #TeamHonk! Annie from Mammasaurus, Tanya from Mummy Barrow and Penny from The Alexander Residence raised almost £10,000 for Comic Relief last year with #TeamHonk and now they’re back for Sport Relief with the ‘TeamHonkRelay!
The relay has been taking place since January 12th with over 200 bloggers from all over the country taking a baton from the most southerly to most easterly points in the country, Lands End to John O’Groates; all done using foot power, pedal power and any other sorts of other human power to get there!
And this week is London’s turn where we have #Honkopoly! Vanessa from HPMcQ, Sophie from Franglaise Mummy and Sarah from Grenglish Blog Came up with the idea which means the London leg will visit the Monopoly board in true #TeamHonk style! Along with around 30 others we’re going to join them on the 5th February (tube strike permitting) where Team London will carry the baton 15miles through the capital in this life size game of Monopoly – JUST up my street eh!
We will be collecting at least one of each colour, a few stations and trying not to be sent to jail! What fun! Of course this is all about raising money so if you’d like to sponsor #TeamHonk then please do so at the Just Giving page here!
And if you want to get involved then why not:
- Walk, jog or run the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile, choosing from 1, 3 or 6 mile distances
- Make a splash with the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Swimathon, and choose from a range of individual and team distances, including 1.5km, 2.5km and 5km or you can choose your own distance with SimplySwim
- Get on your bike and take part in the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Cycle, taking place in Glasgow, Manchester and London. Participants can cycle 25 miles, 50 miles or get the whole family involved in a 3 mile cycle.
