← Marathon In A Day

I was invited to enter this event by friends from the world of Twitter.

So pleased to have taken on the challenge.

Rules were simple enough.

Run or walk 26.2miles within a period of 24 hours. This could be done solo or in a team.

Sounds easy but it's actually more tricky than many realise.

All profit goes to MIND charity- such a great cause.

I chose the solo marathon option.

My marathon was done in three sections.

Part 1-

10am- 13.13 miles in Fleetwood. (01:45:57)

Part 2-

1:13pm 8.18 miles Fleetwood to Blackpool. (01:13:02)

Part 3- 

7:03pm 5.19miles in my home city of Leeds. (0:46:58)

26.5miles in total. 

Believe me, it wasn't easy but it's been a wonderful thing to be part of.

The camaraderie amongst our group on Twitter has been fantastic. 

Seeing people work together as a team, progress and have a laugh in the process has been brilliant. 

It sums up what a special bond there is in the running community.

There's been fantastic efforts right across the board.

It's been such a rewarding experience. 

Massive well done, everybody.
