We are running the gruelling 56 mile Bullock Smithy Race http://www.bullocksmithy.com/ across the Peak District in under 24 hours on the weekend of 4th - 5th September 2010. This is over some of the most challenging running terrain in the UK and with a total height gain of over 8000m!
We are running itto raise money for Feet First Worldwide http://www.feetfirstworldwide.com a charity founded in 2004 by Steve Mannion a Blackpool Orthopaedic surgeon to treat and prevent physical disability in children worldwide, in particular neurofibromatosis or 'club foot' an extremely debilitating congenital condition. Tim, one of our team members suffered from this condition as a child and thanks to the right corrective medical treatment is now able to run mountain marathons - we want this ambition to be realised for all children suffering from this condition, through the inspirational work of Steve Mannion.
