Lockdown started and I'd no real races so what to do?

Then this race popped up. It’s a 1000 kilometres virtual race across the State of Tennessee from May 1st to August 31st.

My first aim is to complete the 1000 km (update - achieved this on day 73 of the race) and then hopefully push on for 1000 miles. To date I have run over 150 miles in a month just 4 times in my life. 1000 km averages out around 5 miles per day, 1000 miles is just over 8.

Update: To complicate matters I now l have a 100 mile race in August, The Centurion North Downs Way 100 on August 8th. So it's now a triple challenge.

As always I’d like to raise money for Salisbury Hospice, much needed at this time when raising funds is difficult. So if you have any spare cash, I and the hospice would appreciate it. If you don't then you have enough to worry about so your good luck wishes are enough.

If you can donate then please also have a guess at what you think my final mileage will be. In the first 11 days I have run 88.94 miles. The closest guess will receive a £50 Amazon gift voucher from me.
