Kate Ebbens takes her Greenfingers run to Glee

 

Kate Ebbens, who embarked on a 366 daily run to raise money for Greenfingers this year, was spotted in her running gear at Glee alongside friends from the industry, including GTN editor Trevor Pfeiffer, Mr Plant Geek Michael Perry, and Heidi Towse, a trustee of Greenfingers.

 

This month Aylett Nurseries & Fallen Fruits are Kate’s September sponsors, and she caught up with them at Glee, as she continued on her journey towards running 1,000 miles and raise £20,000 for the charity.

 

In her September update Kate said: “Autumn is on its way apparently! I am loving the different seasons as I run through them and what get to see and smell through the UK. Ihad a mini break in the Lake District with over 80 km of hiking/walking and 25km of running – the legs were on fire, but the scenery was breathtaking. On the way to the lakes, I ran with Yorkshire Garden Centres, and kindly Sharon, Katie and Matt ran with me – not the most scenic run but sometimes you just have to find a run that works in between work, holidays!!!”

 

Kate will be running the10k Vitality London run on 22nd September alongside 10 members of her family.

 

“Thank you again for all your support and please I only need a small amount of sponsorship because every pound will help ensure Greenfingers Charity are able to create these magical gardens,” she added.
