SPONSOR TEAM MOON

Hopkins & volunteers

Meet Team Moon.

Hopkins is gathering a community of runners for one spectacularly over-ambitious journey: Hastings to the Moon and all the way home again.

Every eligible mile is pooled into the team total. You can join simply to add your miles, choose to fundraise as well, or sponsor the team from the comfort of Earth.

Outward to the Moon. Then all the way home.
