😨 Blindman 2 Marathons in 1 day??!!

Me BPUK 1

Hi all…I need your help, experience and opinions!

After theĀ ā€œUltra Step Challengeā€ last December (2021) i saidĀ ā€œi’m not doing a challenge that i’ve made up next time…I’m going to do an organised event by the charityā€. Well that didn’t last long, as here i am again thinking of my latest challenge!! I thought i’d put it to you guys first before i started a fundraising page and jumped in feet first, lol! 🤣 Ā 

My latest ideaā€¦šŸ˜²Ā 

As you may know my lovely wife Sarah is working for MS Society, so i thought i’d do another challenge to help fundraise. My mum died of MS the same month i was registered blind in July 2000. So of course this charity is close to my heart…So here is my idea.

I thought i’d try and walk 2 marathons in 1 day?? (please give me your thoughts on this) 🤣  In my last ultra step challenge it took me over 4 days to walk the distance of 2 marathons…So i thought it’d be a great idea to try and walk 2 marathons in 1 day! 😨 Or should i start with 1 marathon first? šŸ¤”Ā 

Can this bonkers blindman do this, lol? I wanted to walk on an athletics track as the stress of walking around my local woods would be way too much external stimuli for me and that amount of distance. But it’s harder than you think to get a track for 24 hours. Any ideas? Do you think this is a good challenge? Have you had any experience of anything similar? šŸ¤”Ā 

I’m thinking of doing this 24 hour challenge in March or May 2022, as i’ll (or you) come up with a funky title for my MS March or May ideas…Also it’ll give me some time for lots and lots of walking before i start.

    I have no idea if you should do two in one day or not, but I’ll pray for wisdom for you and Sarah, that God will speak clearly to your heart on this. I love what you two are doing to bless others. May God bless you both in return!

    A walk for MS would be really good. Perhaps you could contact their foundation and get some assistance. Blessings and Peace!
