We start with 21 athletes from across all sections of the club – brave souls who are now committed to putting in the miles to virtually travel from Haslemere Rugby Club in Surrey, UK to Surrey, North Dakota, US. These athletes will have to put in around 458 miles collectively each week!
Each week we’ll update on the progress of this group of legends, calling out those who have valiantly put in the time and effort to reach the goal. There will be a weekly top 5, a total top 5 and some special mentions where we see fit.
From the warm-up performances we’ve seen over the last week, Craig Smith and Dan Darin are expected to lead the way on the running whilst Tim Hawes and Richard Hawes are all set to dominate the cycling. Special mention goes to Sam Powell who smashed a '10 miler' early doors in prep for this week.
Stay Safe, Stay Sane, wash your hands and keep a socially responsible distance from the world at large. Good Luck Everyone!
