Matt Runs The Leeds Half For St Gemmas

matt carter (1)We feel this is worth a mention, Matt Carter one the Mangers here at Indigo Car Hire has again taken part in the Leeds Half Marathon raising much needed funds for St Gemma’s Hospice.

Matt commented ‘This is the 8th year running I have completed the event and can safely say this year was the hardest of all those years – I think with a combination of a 5 month old and 5 year old daughter at home, it has meant training was at a minimum, and my completion time of 2.09 reflected this. However it is the people at places like St Gemma’s (and there are many other places like them) that provide the inspiration to keep on running and simply get through’

Matt raised a total of £93.00 for St Gemma’s which adds to the company total which can be seen by clicking here.

First Load Of Bags Sent Off To St Gemmas

The guys in the office have been busy sorting through their unwanted things to fill up some charity bags for our chosen charity St Gemmas Hospice. We managed to fill a total of 12 bags which we are told on average are worth about £35 per bag to the charity. So the first £420 has been chalked off of the total for this year.

Tracie Harrison from St Gemmas popped in to collect the bags, we assumed she would turn up in a van but no, its was a blue Vauxhall Corsa, which we have now nicknamed the tardis due to its surprising loading capacity.

Matt Completes The Leeds Half Marathon

MattMatt Carter finished the Leeds Half Marathon in 2.08.38 a respectable time seeing as little training was done and he finished with plenty to spare, ready for his 2nd full marathon in October.

Matt took over the mantle from our director Cherie Carter who was due to run this time but could not seeing as she is 3 months pregnant with their second child.

This year the race was expanded to include 6000 participants and for sure there were more supporters than the previous 7 years he has taken part, more of a carnival atmosphere.

This is the start of many fundraising event for Indigo Car Hire’s chosen local charity ‘St Gemma’s Hospice’ which provide incredible care for the terminally ill. Click here to read more about them and the other events we have planned.
