On July 12th-13th, I will be taking part in a 24hr Rollerblading Relay in Le Mans, France.

The 24 Heures Roller Du Mans takes place every year on the Le Mans Bugatti circuit, the same circuit where the iconic 24hr cycling and motorsport endurance races take place! It is among the biggest endurance skating events in the world, bringing together professionals and amateurs (*cough* like me *cough*) alike. I will be competing over the 4,185 metres circuit in a team of eight to cover the greatest distance possible in a day.

An although I've been skating in various disciplines for a while this will be my first endurance event of any sort and will surely present a new challenge!
