Mind The Wall - Simon

Simon's taking on "The Wall", but it isn't just about the challenge of running the 69 miles in 24 hrs... in order to run from Carlisle to Newcastle in June there's a lot to do. From the start of 2014 to the end of the race he'll have achieved:- a whopping, great 1269 miles thats the equivalent of nearly 26 full marathons in 6 months or as far as Wokingham to the Oktoberfest in Munich worth of running for a massive more than enough time to watch every episode of Red Dwarf.. two and a half times. That's nearly three and a half days on his feet when he could be watching TV! 83hrs on very tired legs burning around 92,000 kcals the same calories as 245 pork pies or having 485 pints of London Pride! in the procesS whilst also competing in 3 half marathons, full marathon and 1 ultra marathon Not only that, he'll be attempting a number training runs involving one-way train tickets and carrying no cash for a cab home! and he's doing all of this because of an even more important statistic... One in four people in the UK will experience a mental health problem each year. mind PLEASE SPONSOR THE TEAM AT:- For better mental health http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/team/MindTheWall
