Story

 About six months ago, Rob started making noises about running for a charity dear to his heart. His enthusiasm managed to infect a group of us from Paragon and we are now doing the Hackney half-marathon. With several non runners and one pregnant person, this is a big challenge for most of us but we're really pleased to be able to do it to support SCT.
SCT is a great charity which gives opportunities to recovering addicts and homeless people. Those of you living in East London and/or training at Paragon may know this better as the coffee shop Paper and Cup. Not only are the people working there awesome and recovering addicts themselves, but they do serve great coffee too.
So please if you can, any contribution would be highly appreciated. Thank you very much!!!
