The event raised an amazing £8,500 for Great Abington Primary School. The proceeds will be used to develop the outdoor learning area of the school as well as contributing towards a community pump track.
As well as the money raised for the Abington Primary School, the Abington Pre-School and GAPS out of school club ran its renowned race-day cake stall. The stall raised just over £400 which will be used to update the garden at the Pre-School.
The race committee would like to thank the consortium of generous local sponsors including TWI, BioMed and the Granta Centre who help make this event a success. Not forgetting the 43 local marshal volunteers who stood out in the rain to ensure the runners made it safely around the track.
