Kilomathon
On Sunday 20th March 2011, students from the Sports Council volunteered on a hydration station at the annual Kilomathon event in Derby City. This road race covers 26.2kilometres in distance (roughly 16miles). The experience was very humbling and inspiring as we were based at hydration station 4 which was roughly 20kilometres into the race (roughly 13miles). We had to set up the station, hand drinks out and support the 1500 runners who were participating. We saw amateur and professional’s competing as well as a sun flower and a fire fighter – who was carrying all of his equipment!
The Sports Council will use the money raised to buy T-shirts and badges to give the group some identity as well as potentially funding a coach for Extension activities.
