My wife as just recieved the forms for entry to a marathon.
She will have to run for a charity as there a are now places left for general places.
You have to send in £50 with entrance form and raise another £450 in total £500.
I was wondering if she were unable to raise the full amount what would happen.She is worried she may only raise around £350/£400 as any one been in this situation?

  • Hi!

    I am in a similar position. I know in my case, if I fail to raise the amount (which is £1500, £300 deposit paid) then I will be liable for the balance. I think most work that way.
