The Wall Run · 23 June 2012

Blind in Business helps young partially sighted and blind people into work through comprehensive Training and Employment Services. Both are free. Blind in Business works with young people all over the UK, helping them to raise their confidence and compete equally for jobs with sighted candidates.

Story

Simple really, I'm carrying on my campaign to ruin my knees before the age of 25 and feel like someone ought to benefit from the endeavour.

I will be running 69 miles from Carlisle Castle to Newcastle gateshead millennium bridge- IN A SINGLE JOURNEY. This takes me across a large section of the UK, along the majority of the length of Hadrian's wall.

This little jaunt across "wall country" will take me anywhere between 14 and 20 hours as a best guess, but I am pretty much stepping into the unknown with this one. But who doesn't love a challenge :D For more information on my latest bout of madness, see here:

I will be running this in aid of the charity "Blind in Business", a small UK-based charity that helps blind and visually impaired young people into work, and to achieve their wider ambitions. It also provides assistance to blind and visually impaired children in schools. To read more about their work see here:

And to see a recent example of their work:

Anything you can give will be much appreciated and give me extra incentive to carry on in those gruelling final miles. It's an absolutely fantastic cause, helping to break down barriers for disabled people and giving them the opportunity to achieve their true potential.

Thanks for reading and, as usual, muchos love,

AMT
