Story
Ok so i have done many Marathons 27 to be exact people say I’m mad and what do i get out of running well raising money for needy causes is one thing so far I’ve raised about £12000 pounds for charity over my 20 years of running and the race to the stones is something I had fancied doing for a while, over a drink in our local talking to another fellow runner we decided to do a ultra-Marathon something I have fancied doing for a while , over two days I’m sure that's what I heard I’m up for that, let’s do it, how far I ''said'' 62 miles that's over two days right (wrong read on ) I can do that for a fifty year old that's fine but I’m a fifty five year old go on I’ll give it a go. Always up for s challenge we are doing it in one day,.
The route passes up and along the high ground South West from Lewknor in Oxfordshire to the Thames crossing at Goring. From this point the route rises up onto the North Wessex Downs passing golden fields before the iconic finish where ill head through the towering stones of Avebury. I have decided to raise money for this local charity that is close to my heart it is the Humming Bird Centre.
please help raise money for this brilliant local cause in Launton we have all been touched by the dreaded C in some way. Please sponsor me even a penny will help please dig deep ..im doing the hard bit even pennies will do ..

6 years agoSo that’s it the training is over and the Ridgeway now beckons for Saturday’s 62 mile run. Sundays was the last training run before the big day to try out advice given by other runners and hydration was the main issue, also getting my foot caught an a root of a tree doing a summersalt ending on my back and splitting my back pack and bladder just what you want before a 62 mile event still needed a new one. Don’t forget there is still time to donate……
