This year we started raising money for our three charities in November with our first event: “The Great Vet School Run.” The aim was as a whole vet school to cumulatively run and/or walk 1,710km, which is the distance between each vet school in the UK.
Liverpool→104km Harper → 170km Bristol → 175 Surrey → 69km RVC → 94km Cambridge → 139km Nottingham → 470km Edinburgh → 90km Glasgow → 399km → Liverpool We had an amazing response to this event and absolutely smashed the target in just 4 days. In total we ran 4,666.70km and raised £945. We also got in contact with other vet schools and Harper Keele, Nottingham, RVC and Surrey all completed the run too, raising money for the charities that they have chosen to support this year. A big thank you to Vet Partners who supplied us with some prizes for the male and female that ran the furthest, male and female freshers who ran the furthest, the best Strava art and best fancy dress. |
