At the end of January I will be attempting to run 20 miles (about 32Km for the younger / more continental amongst you) across the hills and moors of the peak district. Along the way I will encounter mud, sub-zero temperatures (probably), mud, dangerously slippery slopes, mud, chest high pools of peat stained water (admittedly only knee high to people of an average height), mud, ice and mud.
To ensure that the experience is as unpleasant as possible I have restricted my training regime to eating cakes and drinking tea.
The only reward that I will receive for this hazardous undertaking (did I mention the mud?) is the knowledge that I will have helped to raise some much needed cash for a very worthy cause (the fact that the run finishes at a pub is purely coincidental).
