Cheltenham Running Club is proud to announce YouFibre as the primary sponsor of our Run2Paris 2026 project.
In April 2026, a team of 20 Cheltenham Running Club members will take on the extraordinary challenge of running from London to Paris — a multi-day endurance event that demands months of preparation, commitment, and teamwork.
This partnership marks a major milestone for the project and provides vital support as the team builds towards the event.
What is Run2Paris?
Run2Paris is not a single race or one-day event.
It is a long-distance, multi-stage run covering the route from London to Paris, completed over several consecutive days. The challenge requires runners to train consistently over many months, building endurance, resilience, and the ability to recover and perform day after day.
For many of the team, this will be the biggest physical and mental challenge they have ever taken on.
Why this project matters to Cheltenham Running Club
At Cheltenham Running Club, we believe in supporting our members to take on ambitious goals — not just in racing, but in personal challenge, shared experiences, and community-driven projects.
Run2Paris represents everything we value as a club:
Long-term preparation over quick wins
Teamwork and shared accountability
Doing hard things properly and responsibly
The project brings together runners of different backgrounds and abilities, united by a common goal and months of collective training.
The role of YouFibre
.Support from YouFibre plays a crucial role in making Run2Paris possible.
Their sponsorship helps cover essential elements of the project, including:
Event logistics and planning
Safety and support considerations
Team kit and equipment
Travel and organisational costs
This backing allows the runners and coaching team to focus fully on preparation and fundraising, knowing that the foundations of the challenge are professionally supported.
We’re incredibly grateful to YouFibre for believing in the project and in what it represents
Looking ahead to April 2026
With just over three months to go, preparations for Run2Paris are now well underway.
Training is being carefully structured and steadily ramped up, with runners building endurance, resilience, and consistency as the challenge approaches. Long runs are becoming a regular feature, recovery is increasingly important, and the scale of the journey ahead is starting to feel very real.
Alongside training, fundraising efforts are beginning to gather momentum, and the team is working hard to ensure they are fully prepared — physically, mentally, and logistically — for the challenge of running from London to Paris.
Run2Paris is a journey that begins long before the first mile is run, and the months ahead will be just as important as the days on the road themselves.
Run2Paris is a journey that begins long before the first mile is run — and we’re proud to be taking it on with YouFibre alongside us.
