Necheeka Trott and Barrington Brown of Team Bermuda College Fast and FuriousA green reason to run

By Amy Harvey and Nick Campbell

The Bermuda Half Marathon’s 100th anniversary gave more than 1,200 people a reason to run on May 25th. Greenrock was delighted to be among the eleven charities selected by the Derby Committee to benefit from the event’s sponsorship money.
