Story
For 10 days in May 2010 (7th to 16th) I ran the Windermere Marathon every day. 10 marathons in 10 days!
In so doing I have become a member of the Brathay 10 in 10 club - there are 32 members only, because only 32 people have ever completed this challenge of 10 marathons in 10 days.
I put myself through this brutal ordeal for Brathay Hall Trust so that it can continue its work with disadvantaged and disaffected young people. You know - the ones we think are anti-societal, the ones we believe have nothing to contribute. Brathay works with these children both locally and nationally to give them a chance, to re-build their lives, to enable them to make a positive contribution. It's a great cause and it has been a life changing experience. Thank you so so much for supporting me.
