5 months of training and approx 500 running miles done in preparation for the coast to coast run/cycle, from Cleethorpes to Liverpool, following the trans Pennine trial from Doncaster.
My little brother Dave and I will start on Monday 4th June, from Cleethorpes running 15 miles each of the 30 mile journey to Scunthorpe, whilst one is running the other will be on bicycle.
Day 2 will be Scunthorpe to Doncaster,
Day 3 we will pick up the transpennine trail and then make our way from Doncaster to Crowdon,
Day 4 Crowdon to Didsbury,
Day 5 Didsbury to John Lennon Airport,
Day 6 we will both run the last 10 or so miles in to Liverpool and finish at Pier Head.
Many have asked why we are doing this, the answer is we are doing this because we can lol, but mainly to see how we handle it and if all goes well then it can lead to something else for our future, more endurance runs and ultra runs could be in the pipeline.
Bike is loaded and on route to Dave's house...
Snacks and drinks purchased ready...
So sleep required then off to Cleethorpes in the morning... more to follow.
Thanks to Debbie, Daniel & Maisie for supporting me and giving me the encouragement to keep on going.
Cheers
John n Dave
