Raise over £25 and we'll send you one of our fancy May Marathon medals to celebrate your completion of the challenge. If you raise over £100 we'll also send you a Scotty's running vest or t-shirt - it's your choice. Please note that the medal and top will be sent to you at the end of the challenge.

What you need to know:
Even if you don’t feel in a position to ask for donations, you can still get involved, have fun and keep active. In the past, some people have popped a small donation on to their own fundraising page as a contribution, and inspired others to join them on the challenge.
If you’re still keen to fundraise but struggling to get sponsorship, why not take a look at our digital supporter pack which is full of tips and information.
