One4Six is a unique one-day fundraising challenge bringing people together to achieve something extraordinary. Inspired by David Banks, participants will work as a team to complete the combined distance of six marathons (157.2 miles/253.2 km), all in support of St Oswald’s Hospice.

Whether you run, jog, or walk, every kilometre you contribute helps us move closer to our shared goal while raising vital funds for an incredible cause. It’s not about individual performance, it’s about collective effort, community spirit, and making a real difference together.

Participants will have the option to run on treadmills at the venue, provided by our partner Wahoo, or join a group run starting from various locations and finishing at Fleet Street Bar in Newcastle city centre.

ABOUT THE EVENT

SOLO OR AS A TEAM!
(REGISTRATION IS FREE BUT WE ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO HELP PUSH TO RAISE FUNDS FOR DAVID’S JUST GIVING PAGE)

You can take on One4Six in whatever way suits you best—whether that’s going solo or as part of a team.

If you prefer to go it alone, you can set your own pace and distance, contributing as much as you can towards the overall goal. Every mile you cover plays a part in reaching the collective six-marathon target.

Alternatively, you can join forces with friends, colleagues, or your organisation and take on the challenge together. Splitting the distance as a group is a great way to build team spirit, support each other on the day, and make an even bigger impact. However you choose to take part, you’ll be contributing to something meaningful as part of a wider community effort.

One4Six takes place on Saturday, 23rd May.

This is a one-day event, with participants contributing distance throughout the day as we work together to reach our six-marathon target.

WHEN IS IT?

Our central hub for the day will be Fleet Street Bar, located in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne. 14-16 Pudding Chare Newcastle upon Tyne. NE1 1UE

This will be the meeting point for participants and supporters, a place to check in, track progress, celebrate milestones, and cheer each other on from start to finish.

WHERE IS IT?

Everyone is welcome to get involved. Whether you’re an experienced runner, a casual jogger, or simply want to walk a few kilometres, you can play a part.

There’s no minimum distance—just contribute what you can. Individuals, teams, businesses, and supporters are all encouraged to join in and help us reach our shared goal.
