The First TRA 260 mile Thames Ring Race · 15 June 2009

Ronald McDonald House UK helps families with children in hospital stay close by providing free accommodation just minutes from children’s hospital wards. Our Houses provide more than accommodation. We offer stability and emotional support that allow parents and carers to be active partners in care.

Story

Dear Sponsors

I thought I would update you all on what happened in the race.

I completed the first 2 checkpoints (55 miles / 88 kms) in about 12 hours. Just after checkpoint 2 and whilst running through Kingston there was an 'incident' which resulted in a leg injury which severly handicapped my progress. I continued for a further 2 checkpoints but could not continue beyond checkpoint 4 (106 miles / 170 kms). At that point I had been running for approximately 32 hours.

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

On the 24th June I am undertaking the LONGEST EVER NON-STOP RACE to be held in the UK.

This is Britain's Ultimate Challenge - just under 10 consecutive marathons in a maximum of 100 hours!

The course is a triangular route taking in the Thames Path and the Oxford and Grand Union Canals.

The race starts at 10:00 on WEDNESDAY 24th June and I have until 14:00 on SUNDAY 28th June to finish. 

I am raising money for both RMHC houses in my birthtown - Brighton and my new home - Munich! Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: RMHC - Ronald McDonald House Charities gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me!
