My life so far seems to have been a series of ludicrous physical challenges. From four full marathons, to a 50 mile ultra-distance running event, and even a 1000 mile bike ride around Europe.
But...
...most of that was a very long time ago, and although managing to drag myself around another London Marathon two years ago aged 40 I've done very little since.
So, due to the continued paranoia around hitting 40 and doing no regular fitness I wanted a new and equally stupid physical challenge to stir my motivation and avoid serious health problems for another few years.
Therefore, help me live a little longer by sponsoring and encouraging me to complete these 12 miles of arduous pain and suffering over all manner of obstacles.
Save a life and sponsor me :)
Here's a link to a highlights reel on YouTube, should you wish to see how bad this thing actually is...
