100 miles - 24 hours

My mission: Run 100 miles (in 24 hours)
When: 17/18 December
Start time: 10am


My challenge. I am going to run a 100 miles in a 24 hour period. I will run the 100 miles at the home of Leeds park run. This will be over 90 laps of the park. When you consider that park run is under 3, you will soon realise that the run will be more than 30 consecutive park runs. Phew.....

Okay, I have been a supporter of Project 65 for a year now. Please see the link to their page here Project 65. This charity is to help injured service personnel and their families.

I am running 5 marathons in 5 days next year with my girlfriend Zoë, her own charity page can be found here Zoë's Page.

What I would like is for people to sign up to run the odd lap with me. It would be great if you could sponsor a lap with me. My average running pace will be 14mins per mile, but I will start at around 10mins to begin with at the start of the day. I am not quite as mad as Rusty, but would love to run with him, so will press this link to sponsor him.

However, if you'd like to support me any other way, such as hot drinks, something to eat or even to come and cheer me on, then please do so. Any support will be much appreciated, especially at 3am in the morning, lol.

For my initial blog, I think that I will leave it at that and see what response I get. I will then blog on my feelings, trainings and goings on over the next 6 weeks or so.

thanks for reading.
