Day Four - Progress

Steve and Andy at the 8 mile mark on Day Four

Steve and Andy broke the half way point of the whole challenge around 12.40 today with three and a half marathons under their belt!!! Fantastic...

Steve and Andy still smiling at the half way point in Carlisle

They are in good spirits, the bad weather is holding off, albeit it's a bit windy. There will be much needed work on their feet tonight, work that only someone who loves them would be able to do. 

Until you see them in action, you don't fully appreciate the magnitude of what they are doing for the boys, for Brian House and for Cancer Research. It's unbelievable, and whilst most people would have given up by now, Steve and Andy are two very determined and very brave men.

2.30pm - The boys are starting to hurt as they approach the 20 mile mark. They are faced with the following long incline, that will test their resolve. It might not look that bad but imagine tackling this when you have just run 99.6 miles!!!!

Steve and Andy are both doing a brilliant job, and from his first hand experience today, Bryan cannot stress enough the challenge they face, both physically and mentally.

During the Carlisle town centre section, Bryan felt that he had left them stranded, as roadworks meant that he was stationery for some time with the boys several miles ahead. He was greatly relieved to finally catch up and ensure everything was ok!
