Reasons to join Plan's Mini Marathon team:

1. Get fit: Running, jogging or walking, the Mini Marathon is a great way to get active and healthy. Which is really never a bad thing!

2. Have fun with friends: Sign up a group of your mates to get involved with you! It's great for motivation and support, as well as making time for a good gossip while you're at it.

3. Support a good cause: if you run or walk for Plan Ireland's 'Because I am a Girl' Mini Marathon team, the funds you raise will help the most marginalised and disadvantaged girls in the world. You will be making a real difference in their lives by helping to fight gender inequality and break the cycle of poverty.

On top of this you'll get an exclusive NIVEA goodie bag full of treats, your very own 'Because I am a Girl' t-shirt, as well as the general warm and fuzzy feeling that you get from exercising AND giving to charity. Not bad eh?
