Am I mad running 30 miles a day for six consecutive days? 

Well thats about the size of the task that is in front of me as I prepare to take my place in a team of six runners that have got together to run a non-stop relay from John O Groats to Lands End. It does sound like a herculian task but it is equally matched by the worthiness of the cause that inspired us. The charity that I am running for is C.W.U.H.A http://www.cwuha.org/ .The charity does a fantastic job helping out needy and vulnerable children both overseas and here in the UK.

A little bit about myself, I am a driver at Warrington Mail Centre and have been running for just over two years. I am a member of Chorley Athletic Club and like nothing better than slogging it round knee deep in mud during cross country season. I am 50 years young, married to Sue and have three children. My eldest, Anthony, is coming along on the challenge as one of the support crew.

We hope to set up a blog, facebook group and a twitter page so you can follow our exploits as they happen. The Run starts at first light on the 18th of May and we expect to finish around the 24th of May after 6 days of non stop running.  Please support this wonderful charity and make the pain that I will be feeling much more bearable.
