Story

Hello, and thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

During Challenge66 our runner Andy McMenemy, will challenge the Guinness World Record for consecutive endurance marathons with no rest days, which currently stands at 52, and was set by a Japanese runner.

Challenge66 will see Andy running 66 Marathons in 66 Days one from each of the 66 official Cities in the United Kingdom raising funds to help ABF The Soldiers' Charity continue to deliver vital support to those service men and women who have been injured either physically or mentally, their families and the families that have been left bereaved. Did you know that a modern prosthetic limb can cost 10's of thousands of pounds?

IMPORTANT

On the website is a list of the 66 cities, and each city has been challenged to raise funds in support of Challeneg66.

Therefore when you donate, please ensure you state which City you wish you donation to be registered against.

Since they were established 66 years ago The Soldiers Charity has been determined to stand by every member of the Army family in their time of need. It is not uncommon for the charity to provide support to families for 20 years or more.

Challenge66 is committed to proudly stand alongside them... so join us, and stand by members of the Army family.
