The Wall Run

Here's a new endurance race for 2012. The wall Run starts at carlisle Castle and ends at Gateshead Millenium Bridge. The 69 mile route follows the course of Hadrian's Wall, which marked the Northern-most boundry of the ancient Roman empire.

The race is held over two days 23rd & 24th June, although those wanting a more serious challenge can run the route in one continous outing.

The weather in Japan has not been favourable over the past few weeks so Sarah is busying herself with last minute preperations and adjustments as she waits for a suitable weather window to, begin her mamouth solo row across the Pacific Ocean.
