Race the Sun challenge

Staff at SMP Partners and Barclays Wealth will be taking part in a challenging event later this month.

Race the Sun involves completing a clockwise lap of the Island's Raad-ny-Foillan 98 mile coastal footpath between sunrise and sunset.

The charity event is the brainchild of the Isle of Man Children's Centre and was first staged in 2008.

The race starts from Peel seafront at 4.47am when the sunrises and each team, which needs to have between five and 10 people, must complete the course by sunset at 9.55pm on June 27.
