Update: At 5pm on Friday, 11 hours before we start we have hit the original £500 target so we have doubled it... Why not right... WWGD!
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. We are Team NBR (No Bling Required)
Some of you might not be aware of David Goggins (go, google him now, you thank us later!) or his 4 x 4 x 48 event but we're four friends who usually run together at Tough Mudder and haven't got to do anything even a little bit crazy together for the longest time...
We are doing this event together, but apart, as Liza is in Havant, Chris and Simon is in Milton Keynes and Pete is in Dorking.
The 4 x 4 x 48 is running (possibly walking, limping, crawling by the end of it) 4 miles every 4 hours for 48 hours. Sounds simple enough right... well, we'll find out. I don't think any of us our underestimating actually how hard this one will be. 48 miles isn't necessarily the biggest challenge for any of us but the constant stop start nature of this event, over 48 hours is something none of us have experienced before.
We were going to do this event as we do all others, simply for ourselves, for personal achievement and under the radar but we are always asked if we are doing the things we do for charity so we decided that together, we would try and put some good out into the world and lend our support to the fantastic Mind charity as I think we can all agree, recent times have been tough on most people and supporting mental health should be at the top of most agendas.
If you do donate to this cause, we thank you. On those dark 4am runs knowing that people have given their hard earned money to support our cause will be one more thing fuelling us and driving us on.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
