Nev's 14 consecutive Half Marathon Challenge, 16 October 2020
The Amer Challenge is going virtual for 2020. The Amer offices are separated by 8,880 miles and the team is uniting to collectively travel the full 8,880 miles - on foot, on wheels, in the water or by any other man powered means - over 2 weeks.

Story

I'm completing the equivalent of a half marathon every day for 14 days between the 1st & 16th October 2020 in aid of the Youth Adventure Trust. Mainly through a combination of running, walking and hobbling, but by any self-powered means!

Strava says I've clocked up 98 miles (158Km) year to date , so err I'm looking to clock up another 180 miles over the next two weeks. This is going to be a challenge and a half..!

With colleagues from Salomon and Amer Sports, we'll be aiming to cover 8,880 miles (the distance between ours and our brand's offices) in 2 weeks, striving to raise £13,000 to make a direct impact on the lives of vulnerable young people.

The last few months have been hard for everyone, but can you imagine finding yourself in a lockdown situation in what was already a difficult and chaotic home environment? This is true for many of the young people on the Youth Adventure Trust programme. Quickly switching their outdoor adventure programme to online 1:1 mentoring support has meant that the Youth Adventure Trust have continued to help those who have had more than most to contend with during isolation. Your support will not only spur me on to complete my challenge but will directly impact the lives of vulnerable young people in the midst of this pandemic. 

I would greatly appreciate what ever value you can contribute, small or large to this amazing cause - directly impacting the lives of vulnerable young people in this difficult time. Every £1 counts.
