The 2.6 challenge

[Bangkok Hibby]

I'm a bit late but intend to run 26 miles next week albeit over a few days. I'm not sure if you are supposed to donate money to a specific charity or one of your choosing. Has anyone taken part in this and what did you do? Who did you donate to?

Was it not intended to 'replace' the London marathon and therefore help fund the charities which individuals would have supported on that day. So pick your own I reckon.

That makes sense I suppose. The real beneficiary hopefully will be me. I haven't ran for many years due to bad knees and weight gain but a while on intermittent fasting has reduced the belly, so on to stamina build up. Maybe even run a proper marathon one day, although the ever increasing speed I seem to be ageing will maybe will put paid to that :confused:
