ππΈβ π βπβππΌ ππππ !!! We're IN! π²π¦
Bob & I are riding the ultra-marathon of Man v Horse on 14th June 2025, and hoping to raise funds for DRUE to help Dobermanns in need of rescue and rehoming.
With my friend Jane Matthews, we're entered with our horses into the Whole Earth sponsored ultra-marathon Man V Horse on June 14th in Lantrwyrd Wells (middle of Wales just past Builth) competing against 60 other horses, 600 runners, and 170 relay teams on a 26 approx mile course over the tough Welsh mountains and hills to the finish line!! π
We were really lucky to get in, as all places were taken just 10 mins after the event opened online!
Previous competitor Mike Turner (of course he did) πis coming to cheer us on.
Head Groom Darren Patrick is crewing with water and provisions at the halfway point vet check, where horse's heart rates are down to 60bpm/below - eliminated if it's not π¬ , so shhhhh Bob π΄
If you would like to sponsor us in aid of Dobermann Rescue UK & Europe reg charity no 1169697, a few Bob (hoho) or a penny a mile would be really appreciated... https://www.justgiving.com/page/jay-kershaw-1736956347490 ππ
Lots of hard graft now to get us both to maximum fitness πͺ
