Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 9th June at midday I will start running the "Last One Standing" race. 

The last one standing starts at 12 noon, runners have 1 hour to complete the first 4.2 mile loop and be at the start line ready to go again at 1pm, then again at 2pm and so on. 

Any runner not finished inside the time limit and at the start ready to start again will be disqualified. 
This will happen every hour until there is only one runner at the start line, this runner will be the last one standing. 
This runner must complete a solo loop inside the time limit to be crowned the winner. 
All runners with the exception of the winner will be an official DNF(did not finish) and will get a medal to prove it. 
Any competitor still in the race at 24hrs 100.8 mile will receive a 100 mile medal.

The challenges include lack of sleep, when & what to eat, general fatigue, and even "when to go to the toilet"..!

The recent February race in Ireland lasted 35 hours which is 147 miles..!
