Something Inspirational

I have just heard about this endurance run which is following the same route as the Olympic Torch. It started 10 days after the official torch and It's a non-stop relay of around 8000miles with each participant running around 10miles each. I think it's brilliant and in the real spirit of the Olympics instead of the farce that saw the official torch being carted around in a car and then the torch bearers only running about 100metres!

Each participant is being asked to donate £10 to charity too so it's a good cause. If you want to follow the relay see the website: endurancelife.com/realrelay/

Oh my goodness! This is awesome! It only goes as far as Oxford at the moment but I would absolutely love to do it! So I am going to keep an eye out on the site. I know that the torch goes really close to where I live, so who nows!! I could do 10 miles by then! How cool would that be!

Thanks Rose for the link

You have to be able to sustain 10 minute miles, so maybe not for me! Never mind.
