Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The COMRADES MARATHON in South Africa is no ordinary Marathon. It is no ordinary challenge.

For a start it is 90K or 56 Miles, so it will be like running 3 ten mile warm-ups, and then running a normal marathon.

It starts at 5.30 a.m. in the first light of morning.
It runs from inland PieterMaritzberg to the Indian Ocean port of Durban.
The temperature varies from cool up at the start, to steamy by the sea.
It is the world's foremost ultra-marathon, having been going since 1921, and this year attracted over 23,000 entries.

 

Cancer Research UK is the largest single funder of breast cancer research in the UK.

Our research is beating breast cancer. Help us fight harder.

Sadly, one in nine women will develop breast cancer at some point in their lives.

We are making fantastic progress, but we can't do it without you.

Join the fight for women's survival and help beat cancer.
