Your industry needs you! Race with us for Stand Up To Cancer
For the fifth year running, we are proud to be joining forces with Stand Up To Cancer and Mark Evans to host The Marketing Industry Sprintathon 2025. It’s the 10th anniversary of the Sprintathon concept - so do come and celebrate with us!!
Boots, HSBC, Mondelez, Thinkbox and VCCP are among the many who’ve already signed up – isn’t it about time you did too?
What’s it all about?
it’s a bit like your old school sports day but much more fun and crucially it’s about our industry coming together to give back by raising much needed funds for Stand up to Cancer.
How can we get involved?
Get together a team of four to take part in a 400m relay (4 x 100m) and you’ll collectively race with other teams to cover the distance of a marathon. You don't have to be an experienced runner, it’s all about doing your bit for charity with fellow members, colleagues and friends. You literally only need to run 100m each but it's a day of camaraderie, celebration and determination to raise money for a good cause. Watch the highlights reel of last year’s event below to get a feel for the day.
How much has been raised?
Since the very first Sprintathon, a whopping £960,000 has been raised. This year we want to exceed £1 million - with your help and participation we know we can get there!
When and where?
Sprintathon 2025 takes place in Battersea Park on Thursday 22 May from 12:30pm to 5:30pm.
