Gareth, Simon and Matt are #TeamMarvellous
My first challenge is the Brecon Beacons 51k on 8th August. This is an ultra-distance challenge through the rugged hills and stunning landscapes of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Covering 51 kilometres with steep climbs (7000ft!!) and demanding terrain, it’s a real test of endurance, determination, and resilience.
My second challenge is The Lisbon Half Marathon is one of the six half marathons around Europe that make up the Superhalf series.
Having already conquered Valencia, Cardiff, Copenhagen, Prague and Berlin Half Marathons over the last 4 years, the team only need Lisbon to complete the Superhalf series and collect the giant medal.
What better way to complete the series than by Running the Lisbon Half Marathon in March 2027, in support of Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity.
Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity provides specialist nurses and support for seriously ill children. There are currently over 250 Roald Dahl Nurses caring for over 50,000 seriously ill children across the UK.
