My story

Running Marathons / Ultras since 2009 raising money for Help for Heroes. 60+ and counting...

2013's big challenge is a 300 mile soap-inspired run. Setting out from the Eastenders set at Elstree on 24th May, I will be running North to Yorkshire to visit Emmerdale then will head West to drop-in on Weatherfield and Corrie, before completing my run in Hollyoaks on 30th May...hopefully for a well-earned pint in The Dog!

Previous highlights:

4ootball Marathon - 100 mile solo run between 4 football league grounds

Gavin & Stacey Marathon - 205 miles from Gavin's Billericay to Stacey's Barry Island

Stadia Marathon - Wembley>Lords>Twickenham>Wimbledon>Crystal Palace

There's plenty more to come - to see all the latest details and photos, then go to http://midasmarathon.tumblr.com/ or please visit www.midasmarathon.com 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now....

Thanks for your interest, and hopefully your support.

 

All the best,

 

Richard
