7th May 2007 - MOKRUN announces support of Contact4 for 2007 events

MOKRUN is pleased to announce the financial support of Contact 4 for this year’s 2007 Mull of Kintyre Half Marathon & 10k.

Together with funding already secured from Argyll & Bute Council, South Kintyre Sports Council, the Campbeltown Common Good Fund and the National Lottery, MOKRUN now have in place all the funding necessary to stage this year’s event.

A spokesperson for MOKRUN commented “Without the support of all our sponsors and supporters the cost of entering MOKRUN would be around double what is actually paid by entrants. We are very grateful to all our sponsors for their support.”

Jamie G is on hand early doors too to keep the atmosphere going with some of his famous tunes! With doors opening at 8pm this will be a great night. (please note doors will close at 10pm)

All proceeds on the evening will go towards the Sports Council mini Bus Appeal with the Sports Council donating £1000 to the MOKRUN event to help cover their costs.
