Story
Inspired by the Hurricane 80k Challenge, Eddie and I have decided to run, row and cycle 84.4 kilometers in each discipline over 8 days. This will mean doing 2 marathons in each discipline spread out across the 8 days.
We chose to raise money for the charity Mind as due to Covid-19, we have seen and understand there has been a huge impact on people's mental health in this tremendously challenging time and also as a result of the two month long lockdown. We also understand that due to the huge influx of crucial charitable donations going towards the NHS and the fight against Covid-19, other charities such as mind are suffering hugely and they are just as important in this fight as they have ever been before.
We have set the target for money to be raised to equal the total number of kilometers we will be completing.*
*Following incredible support coming our way so quickly, we have increased our target to now be £4 for every kilometer we will be covering!
