Congratulations and thank you to all those who participated in I Love Brockley Fun Run 2008 supported by The Brockley Cross Action Group (BXAG). Over 250 people raced up, down and around Hilly Fields on Sunday 27 April 2008. Over 100 local supporters come out to cheer the runners on.

They were running to help raise money for the Brockley Common, one of the BXAG’s main projects. The money raised will be used toward the creation of the Common, a new open public space behind Brockley station ticket office. Click here to see the official race times.

Des Kirkland, BXAG chairman and Erin Essex, BXAG race organiser, said that the I Love Brockley Fun Run 2008 was a great way to encourage people to be fit, healthy and enjoy our wonderful green spaces in Brockley.  “It was a wonderful sight to see”, said Erin. “There were 2 Sumo wrestlers, a devil, a North American native chief running as well as a runner on stilts, along with families, prams, dogs and loads of local community runners. It was a truly amazing morning. It will definitely be an annual event!”
 

The BXAG group has approx 30 “I Love Brockley” Badger t-shirts left from the limited edition 300 print. They are currently for sale for £10 at the Broca coffeeshop at 4 Coulgate Street, Brockley SE4 2RW. All the proceeds will go the BXAG.
