Between 13 July and 11 August 2026, the Licensed Trade Charity is hitting the road for one of our most ambitious challenges yet: the JOGLE Pub Run. Over 30 days, a team of Ultra runners will be completing the 900 mile route over 30 days, each running multiple daily segments of approx. 30 miles, with at least one of them running the whole distance! Clearly I am no ultra runner, but I will be doing my own running challenge as part of the Virtual LTC JOGLE Pub Run, aiming to cover at least 200km (actually aiming for 250km) over these 4 weeks.

I will be running almost every day during these 4 weeks (logistics slightly complicated by being on holiday for 2 of them!), including the Thatcher’s Community Day on Wednesday 5th August, and culminating in a 30km run on Tuesday 11th August. Just hoping my legs hold out til then, and that it won’t be 36C!

For full transparency, accountability and “motivational comments” you can find me here on Strava https://strava.app.link/Nnz7nUx3f4b

If anyone wants to join me for a training run, or for one of the actual Challenge runs, or even for a post run pint, I would be delighted!

It is an absolute privilege to work for the Licensed Trade Charity, and we would be incredibly grateful if you could sponsor me for this challenge. Knowing the finances of the Charity inside out as I do, I can guarantee that every single penny donated will go directly to people who really need our support.

Thank you!
