Disney enjoy Festival of Running

Nineteen energetic Disney Store cast members proudly joined runners in the glorious surroundings of Battersea Park for the charity’s Festival of Running on Sunday 7 June.

Raising nearly £1,100 for the Disney Appeal for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity, the 5k lapped course was a fun introduction to running for several of the Cast Members who had never participated in a challenge event before. 

Training for the Festival of Running 5k run has been a lot of hard work involving several evening sessions on a treadmill and even a few injuries. However, the excitement of taking part in an activity that will actually make a difference as well as the opportunity to put a smile on a little child's face makes it all worthwhile.
