He'll probably cover the required distance wandering around checking his aircraft and (later) leaving the cockpit to go for a pee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cover quite a distance wandering through Airports. But run is what I said that I would and run I will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaymo Posted January 14 Author Report Share Posted January 14 2.26 miles just now and what have I learnt…. Carrying an equivalent of a small child around the waist is bloody hard work. Running on unlit country roads is bad for two reasons 1, can’t see the path n pot holes 2, oncoming car headlights makes ‘1’ even more dodgy. On the positive, new shoes are so much better. 17 days to cover 22 miles so should be good. Thank you once again for the support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaymo Posted January 22 Author Report Share Posted January 22 6.5miles today on the treadmill as the weather here in Germany isn’t the kindest. Combo of run/ jog and walking at almost 4.6mph, has me sweating like a real athlete. Got 8 more days to do 13.6 miles so should be over the finish line on the night of the 31st. Now the blag. I have someone who will sponsor me another £75 but that leaves me just shy of my ideal £500 target ( my initial target was £100) so would be eternally grateful of any sponsorship. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
