Magic Feet

YOU lookin' at ME !?!?

Anyone fancy the idea of running 70km (43.5 miles) over two days across the hills of the South Downs in the heat of July? (OK, only a British July...)

That was the question I sent out to some friends a few months ago - everyone asked - "what's the event?" and "which charity are you running for?" The event and charity is called FUN - yes, I wanted to do it for fun.

Not surprisingly many made their excuses and said no. However, three equally "special" individuals were up for the challenge (the first of a few I think...) and a big fat thanks to them - Kristian, Brendon and Marty - for joining me in this slightly unusual idea.


Starting in Upper Beeding and running along the South Downs Way all the way to Eastbourne Pier for Fish and Chips - that was the idea, being Brits an' all. So Dream Team in place, off we went. Here's a few pictures and a short 4 minute video I made last night from compact camera video clips and the "herocam"!! Enjoy




The last few miles across Beachy Head and down onto Eastbourne Promenade...

Happy, Sweaty People...

Fish and Chips at the finish!!


So a great big thanks to Marty, Brendon and Kristian for coming along - just for fun...
