LOVED being part of the GO Run For Fun event! The GO Run For Fun team are so passionate about encouraging kids to get active and honestly it's contagious, I couldn't help but love it! All the kids (and their teachers!) ran or walked 2k in the sunshine and all had a great time doing it...they all inspired me, reminding me that this exercise thing is meant to be fun!

I am an advocate of encouraging young people's participation in sport and growing sport at the grassroots and community levels. By teaming up with the local clubs, schools and events, the GO Run For Fun campaign aims to do just this. I feel passionately about motivating people to get involved in sport and I am proud of this campaign.

We know that the positive experiences we have at a young age shape habits for life - which is why it's so key to help young children enjoy getting active daily. Running is the simplest, most natural exercise you can do, it's fun and social, and it helps to teach the basics of a healthy lifestyle. As childhoods become more sedentary than ever, we're proud that the GO Run for Fun and The Daily Mile initiatives have helped over 2 million children get up and running since 2013 - and are inspiring their families, too.
