You might have seen him running to work meetings, or completing stand-up comedy routines at various networking events.
But for all of the tomfoolery (and bad dad jokes), there is some serious fundraising happening.
Joe Randlesome, Marketing Manager at Contract Personnel, is taking on a year of challenges to raise money for two Norfolk charities – Break and Norwich City Community Sports Foundation.
And there’s more….
Joe will now be taking on the role of Brand Ambassador for fellow Norfolk Chamber of Commerce member – Good Running Events.
So far this year, Joe has run 5k each day during January, run a different Parkrun each month (this will be happening for all 12 months), run from Contract Personnel to The Nest and also Break HQ and taken on races including Trowse 10k, Valentine’s 10k and more.
Looking ahead to the 2025 race schedule, Good Running Events are preparing to host Run Sandringham (15th June, 8-10 August, 28 September, Run Snetterton (30th July), AEPG Great Eastern Run (12th October), Duxford Dash (26th October), Larking Gowen Norwich Half Marathon (23rd November), Run Luminate 5k (November).
Joe said: “I am really excited to work with Aaron and the Good Running Events team/ambassadors to promote the races, sponsorships and the benefits of running in general. Judging from my recent LinkedIn posts, there are lots of people in the Norfolk business community who enjoy lacing up their trainers – so if there is anything I can to help people, do drop me a message.
“I met Aaron through a Co.next mentoring session a few years ago and so it is great to have continued the relationship to this day.”
Aaron Murrell, director at Good Running events, added: “It’s a pleasure to have Joe onboard and look forward to welcoming him to a start line very soon.”
