Ladies and gentlemen please join me in wishing this incredible athlete the very best of luck ๐
10am tomorrow morning Susan Fawkes will be on the start line for what is known as Britains most brutal race across the Pennine Way ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ๐๏ธ
The Montane Winter Spine Challenger South is a non-stop, 108 mile race along the Pennine Way. Beginning from Edale in Derbyshire, runners have a time limit of 60 hours to get to the finish at Hawes. The race covers the southern section of the trail which features the iconic moorland of the Kinder Plateau, numerous National Parks, Malham Cove and Pen-y-Ghent. This challenging and technical section is a physically and psychologically demanding route that requires concentration, good physical fitness, resolve and respect. This becomes even more demanding with the full intensity and ferocity of the British Winter in deep snow, storm force winds and driving rain. โ๏ธ ๐ง ๐ง๏ธ ๐จ

Godspeed ๐ซถ
