The 120 marathon man challenge

After a 15 month delay we are now ready to take on 120 marathons in 120 days challenge. We have altered the route due to the current climate and decided not to travel to Europe and in its place put in some of the national trails which are equally as challenging, the start date will now be Saturday 26th June 2021, with the first marathon starting in Harrogate and the last marathon finishing in Harrogate on Saturday 23rd October 2021.

Thank you for all your continued support and understanding.

This is a self funded challenge trek of 120 marathon distances of 26.5 miles per day for 120 consecutive days, starting on the 26th June 2021 and finishing on 23rd October 2021.

The 120 marathons will cover 5 countries, 3 isles and 5 national trails. covering a distance of 3180 miles, or to put that into context will be the equivalent of walking from Leeds to New York City.

The 120 marathons will see us taking in the 48 english counties as well as the marathons in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Ireland and the Isle of Wight, Isle or Anglesey, Isle of Man as well as 2 marathons on a ferry.
