A TEAM of volunteers from a Redditch-based charity, have signed up for the gruelling 10K challenge The Wolf Run, this September.

The running team for the Where Next Association are made up of members of staff, and friends of the charity.

The Wolf Run is not for the meek, and covers all kinds of terrain, from woodland and lakes, to tick mud, so that competitors have to run, climb, jump, wade, crawl and swim through the course in order to complete it.

The competitors have called themselves the ‘Garden Gnome Ninjas’ and they hope to raise funds for Where Next, which helps people with learning disabilities in the Redditch area achieve their full potential. People can donate to their cause at thebiggive.co.uk or by calling Where Next on 01527 69955. To keep an eye on how their training is going, they can be tracked via their Facebook page ‘Garden Gnome Ninjas’.
