Unfortunately Craig will be unable to run this year. This due to the fact that he is in training with the Army and has not been granted the days leave)
 
After such a success with our 24 hour Adventure Race, we have decided to set our goals a little higher this time. The next target is for the London Marathon 2008. Photos of our progress and new targets can be seen on our website www.macventure.org.uk
 
Training includes:
Three peaks 24 hour Challenge
Hellrunner South

For the Marathon itself we will be dressed in Military attire. On successful completion we will have set a new world record. This has now  been verified by the Guinness Book of Records.
