Go to enquiry formHow do you know someone has run the marathon? Well, they tell you of course! My marathon days are over, but I do know exactly how it feels to train and run the iconic London Marathon event. That moment you cross the finish line at Pall Mall after 26.2 miles, makes the long-training runs, ice baths and foam rolling all worth it.
What makes that feeling even more satisfying is that you’ve taken on the challenge to help other people. Every £1 you raise will be helping to spark ambition and unlock opportunity for young people in the UK that are without the support and guidance to secure a positive future.
On behalf of every young person we work with, thank you for thinking of running for TTF, and welcome to the team!
Milan to Bologna 2026 Cycle Challenge
The Prague to Munich cycle challenge 2025 team. Challenge sponsored by Morgan Sindall and Willmott Dixon.
We're seeking adventurers who are ready to challenge themselves by cycling 260 miles over 3 days from Milan to Bologna from 25 - 27 September 2026.
This will be our seventh cycle challenge. Over the years, we cycled from Blackpool to Paris, Carlisle to Newcastle, across the southern coast of France, along the Danube from Vienna to Budapest, and from Copenhagen to Berlin, battling headwinds. In 2025, a team of 30 riders cycled from Prague to Munich, climbing more than 15,000 feet of elevation, and fundraising more than £62,000 for under-served young people.
Watch our 2022 challengeA brilliantly organised cycling event, supporting a charity which actually makes a difference. As well as having a great few days, I felt proud to be supporting young people. Well done, such a great event.
