LATEST UPDATE: CHALLENGE COMPLETED WITH A 101KM RIDE ON JULY 25TH! TOTAL 833KM.
Last year's 100km cycle challenge was the first formal sporting charity event that I'd ever entered and the longest ride I'd ever undertaken. I did it and completed it in a fraction under 5 hours (my target was 5.5h) and it felt amazing!
Covid-19 has robbed us of this year's group event on August 2. So I've come up with my own challenge for 2020.
That's to do 100km per week for 8 weeks.
800km = 500 miles. That's the road distance from Leamington to Ullapool in Scotland. 500 miles has a nice ring to it (...and I would walk 500 miles...). So does £500, which is my fund raising target this year.
So my self-challenge is 500 for 500. Please sponsor me and help to raise desperately needed funds to keep Myton going through these very challenging times.
