Run for us

Our work is totally dependent on donations. Your support will help us find a cure and improve life for everyone affected by Parkinson's.

All our runners will receive a breathable running vest with iron-on letters and a fundraising pack. We'll support you all the way through your training and fundraising, and be there on the day to cheer you on!

We encourage everyone to apply for their own place so we can have the largest team possible.

To get your own place in the 2012 Edinburgh Half Marathon, visit the Edinburgh Marathon Festival website. Unfortunately, places in the Edinburgh Marathon have now sold out but we have charity places - see below.

Once you've got your own place, please complete and return our registration form (Word, 250KB) so we can support you.

If you have your own place, there's no minimum sponsorship target.

Get your charity place

To apply for one of our places, please complete and return our registration form (Word, 250KB). Places are allocated on a first come, first served basis.

For each charity place we ask runners to pay a registration fee and pledge to raise a minimum sponsorship:

• Individual marathon: £40 reg fee plus £450 fundraising target
• Team marathon relay: £40 plus £500
• Half marathon: £25 plus £200

It's important to consider this commitment carefully when applying - we rely on the sponsorship raised to fund our work helping people with Parkinson's.
