Story

Kincardine - Berlin 904 


We came up with this idea during a group chat about running. There were a few in the group who ran frequently. Others commented that it’s hard to be motivated to leave the house and run and we should do something that involves us all. 

We came to an agreement that we should run the distance from Kincardine (the place we all grew up) to Berlin. The total mileage for the group is 904 miles. 

We decided to begin on VE Day (May 8th) and finish on D-Day 6th June. 

“For all those finding it difficult: the sun will shine on you again and the clouds will go away”  Captain Tom Moore
