I'd love to do this, was meant to do it last year. But there is NO way my body would be able to cope.

I have run the full thing a few times now (not last yr though).
It can be done, just build up your endurance starting from NOW. Just light runs at the start and push yourself a bit further each time. Do it regularly smile.gif

I will definetly consider!!!

Its not impossible people tongue.gif

walking is good for you, the walk u can take your time and rest when ever need be so there is no rush in completing the course.
