Eddie completes 27 marathons in 27 days for Sports Relief
#MarathonMan
To say that running over 700 miles in 27 days is gruelling is a major understatement. Eddie has shown huge physical and mental resolve, but he's also had a little help from his friends. Whether the crew, locals or well-wishers travelling to support him, Eddie has often had company on this incredible challenge. Thank you for your support.

Steady Eddie is running a good pace. The 20km mark means it is time for some energy boosting refreshments. Our marathon man is such a pro that he is able to do this without even breaking stride. Go Eddie!

As if Eddie wasn't motivated enough, as of this morning the total that he has raised for Sport Relief through doing this crazy challenge has passed ONE MILLION POUNDS! Wow! Thank you so much - this money will make a real difference to people's lives.
