Thursday 31st March : #26 Really enjoyed Half number 26. Weather was perfect, blue sky, sunshine, and quiet cool at 9am Started at Meole Brace Retail Park car park and ran without a planned route, ended up in Sutton farm, Abbey Forgate, Coleham, Ditherington and turned back. No toots to mention, but on Km 11 […]
Wednesday 23rd March: #24 done, 505Km gone, almost a quarter of my challenge complete 🙂 996 miles to go, finally number is below 1000! Was tough today, legs and especially hamstrings were still sore from last run, what do I expect after running 75k in seven days! Didn’t help the fact that I picked a […]

Originally I planned to run #14 on Wednesday morning, but I gladly postponed it because of work commitments and decided to move it to Thursday around midday. Then […]
10% Complete #7,8,9 and 10 Sunday 24th January: 1:40′.17″ Half #7 done, my second fastest time this year so far, was very warm and tough going even on an easy course, not surprised, I’ve ran 33 miles in four days including a sub20′ parkrun ! The good news is that I’m having three days rest, […]
Thursday 14th January: #4 was easy peasy, picked a route that I regularly use, with a few climbs but nothing too strenuous. Was a cold and windy morning, my finishing time was 1h 44′ 02″ my slowest to date, but that was part of my plan because of a little backache I’ve had for […]

In 2012 & 2014 I completed challenges for Children Charities and raised over £3000, “this time […]
