Cape 2 London Run
Never been attempted! - running from Cape Town to London
Aim of this run
To raise funds and awareness for various charities
We are looking to raise funds for a minimum of 3 charities to a total of $5 million the period of the event.
The Event
An endurance run will be in two continents and will cross 17 countries. (dependent on the political situation at time.) This event will cover 16,000 miles on foot. The race starts in Cape Town, South Africa and ends in London, UK. The countries crossed will be South Africa, Botswana, Zambia, Tanzania, Kenya, (Sudan or Ethiopia and Eritrea) dependant on the situation, Egypt, Israel, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Austria, Germany, Netherlands, England.
This will be an ultimate endurance challenge as we will aim to complete 75 miles per day 5 days a week with 2 days rest , that equates to around 3 marathons a day. A longer break will be taken for approx 5 days in Tanzania and then again in Greece, dependant on the time restraints.
The Team
The endurance run will be run by an ex British Royal Marine, currently in South Africa. John will be backed by various teams for the duration of the race.
Our support staff, sponsors and public will play a very important physiological role in this race. Our site will be updated with the events on a daily basis in order for sponsors fund raisers and interested parties to be informed. The fund raising and logistical team will be based in our Cape Town offices.
We will need your support! Please get involved. This event can only be launched and successful with your loyal support.
