The Annual interfaith fun run is a fantastic example of celebrating faith through sport and encouraging healthy lifestyles. Held annually at Stonex Sports Stadium in Barnet and organised by Jewish organisation Macabi GB & FBF it’s become a firm event in the AFN calender.
The AFN Team( 7 strong this year) joined hundreds of people from many different religions on possibly the hottest day this Summer.
David Dagoon, who heads the Faith Council of the Lord Lieutenant’s Office London was guest of honour, who motivated the runners with an inspiring speech before a very loud horn sounded -signalling the start of several long and short races!
The real beauty of this day is immersion into other religions through their music, food & information stalls not to mention conversation, friendship and the development new cooperations.
