Support for Matt

W.Bro Matt Smallman (PPrGReg), a member of the Lodge of St John in Bedwardine No. 7458 and one of the founders of the newly consecrated Lodge of Direction No.10088, has secured a coveted ballot place in this years London Royal Parks Half Marathon in October and has set himself the ambitious challenge of completing the 13.1-mile course in under 1 hour and 45 minutes (a challenging time given he hasn't run this distance before!), and if this wasn't enough of a challenge Matt has also set himself the challenge of fundraising for the upcoming Worcester 2033 Festival and also the Masonic Charities Foundation.

Now a keen runner Matt, a once self professed couch potato, first discovered his passion for the sport after starting the Couch to 5K programme two years ago. Since then, he has become a regular participant at ParkRuns and competitive 10km races across the country whenever work, Masonic, and family commitments allow. Taking on the London Royal Parks Half Marathon is another exciting milestone in his running journey and an opportunity to support a charitable cause that is close to his heart.
