Race the Thames 2023 is scheduled to take place between the 8th December and 15th December 2023. Join us to bring 2023 to a brilliant finish, getting your team together as we head into the end of the year and taking the chance to support your chosen charity in the run up to the festive season. The best reasons to get involved are:
- Team building - bring your teams together from across the country or the world. it's amazing to hear the stories of the impact we've had over the last 4 years of running the event.
- Getting active - the event is great for those who are motivated and active to inspire those who are less active and build teams to make a positive impact for those who are hard to reach.
- Health and Wellbeing - help your team boost their wellbeing as the winter months close in. We see a massive impact when team captains encourage and sometimes cajole those who are struggling with the winter months to get active and into a positive social group no matter where they are.
This will be our 4th Race the Thames Virtual, with over 300 teams that have entered over the years, fundraising over £300,000 for over 60 amazing causes to date.
