Why the Running Romans?
The Running Romans was established in September 2023 by Paul Betteridge and Aimee Tippins. They had already committed to running the length of Hadrian's Wall ('The Wall') over 3 days in October 2023 with Sara Crosland and Andrew Read to raise funds for The Beyond Recovery Project.
An idea to run 'The Wall' dressed as Romans blew up into the idea to do 5k/10k runs in as many Roman villages, towns and cities across Britain as possible - all to increase awareness of brain tumours and their symptoms and to raise valuable funds for The Beyond Recovery Project.
In Partnership with The Beyond Recovery Project
Created by brain tumour survivor, Sara Crosland, The Beyond Recovery Project is about bringing together others on the same or similar journey, creating a ‘safe’ space and sense of community, where survivors can share experiences and discover how to push beyond the physical and psychological barriers they face together.
