The day set out well. I was prepared but also nervous, unsure what was ahead.
I set off well-paced and strong, yet the weather decided to make it more of a challenge. It rained, was foggy and really cold through the night.
The support I received from people offering to run ahead of me and keep me going was amazing. Every time I checked my phone the donations kept growing.
By the morning, my legs were very sore and it was a really unkind game to finish.
The last few runs I could barely run at all and turned into power walks.
Summary totals: 99,000 steps done, 12,800 calories burnt, 24 runs, 52.4 miles run
I was very glad of the breakfast in the morning and slept 9am-6pm afterwards.
So far, I have reached £1,015 which to say my target was £150 is amazing.
I want to thank everyone involved, those who donated and those who shared my posts to get the word out. This money will go to a great charity who can literally save a life.
