Story
My event was successfully completed on Friday 11th December. I visited all 10 Bristol based BNI Chapters under my steam. Many thanks to everyone who supported me both with money but also for the texts, emails and phone calls.
Total Running Time: 6hrs 3 mins. Total Cycling Time 2hrs 26 mins.
Thanks for finding this page.
I'm a member of BNI which is a business networking organisation who meet for breakfast every week. There are a number of meetings held in the Bristol area on Tuesday to Friday mornings. My aim is to visit all 10 meetings in 1 week, under my own steam, between 0645 and 0830 between 7-11 December 2009.
Each morning I will leave my house in Henleaze in order to arrive at the first meeting at 0645. On 3 of the days I will run and on 1 day I will cycle. I expect to cover approximately 63 miles cycling 25 and running 38 (almost 3 half marathons).
It will be a physically demanding challenge - but something that is achievable.
I'm raising money for 2 charities. Caring at Christmas. Caring at Christmas helps homeless people at Christmas and throughout the year. Over the Christmas week, they run a shelter for people who are homeless or vulnerably housed in Bristol. This includes accommodation, food, medical services and entertainment. In the run up to Christmas it would be great if those people who live and work and own businesses in Bristol could donate and support a worthy cause.
My other charity that I am raising money for is Help for Heroes. Providing practical direct support for our wounded servicemen and women you can find more information on my other Just Giving page at www.justgiving.com/andymorris-tourdebni-help4h
Thank you for your support and if you're a member of a Bristol BNI Chapter I look forward to seeing you (albiet briefly) in the week 7-11 December.
