Taking on the Reindeer Run Challenge for RNLI lifesavers

RNLI supporters around the country will be donning their antlers and strapping up their hooves to run 24 miles – all to help keep RNLI volunteers safe this winter.

Freezing seas, numbing winds and sub-zero temperatures – would you fancy launching into that aboard a lifeboat? RNLI crews will be doing just that, battling the elements this winter to continue their mission to save every one.

Reindeer Runners will be raising money so they have everything they need to answer the call for help. Because no matter how harsh the winter weather might be, lifeboat crews will always launch to the rescue. I’d be so grateful if you could sponsor me.

I may be crazy.....

Monday 4th Nov
I've done extreme, by some standards, events  in the past but never for charity. I don't really like asking for things and tend to do things on my own. 
Opportunities to do sponsored events have occurred in the past but I've always 'layed down until the feeling past'. So this time I JDI! Signed up on the first positive notion of the idea. 

RNLI has always held a place with me. I love the water and any recreation on or in it and RNLI plays a such an important role in helping people in distress. So when this challenge landed I thought....I can do that.
I've been running regularly in the past few months and probably average 24 miles, or nearly, every week....so no challenge really. "But why would people sponsor me?"
So to make it a challenge.....I'm going to run 24 miles in a single day.....on the 24th December!
I've not decided my strategy yet but 1 mile every hour is a good place to start and I have a 1 mile loop starting at the end of our close. So let's see. Midnight to midnight finishing on Christmas day!

If you want to join me virtually we can always make up a team.
