The NAC CARES Team are 30 days into their 100-day challenge to travel the length of the UK from Land End to John O’ Groats (LEJOG). The last 30 days have seen the team run, cycle and walk to rack up the miles for the 1,084 mile (1,743km) challenge.
The team is outside Coventry and virtually passed through many well-known landmarks, including Stratford-Upon-Avon, The Royal Shakespeare Company Theatre, Oxford and Kenilworth Castle. The beauty of a virtual challenge is that even with the impending cold weather forecast, the team can still check off the miles on treadmills and indoor bikes so, in the words of a Disney Princess, let it snow!
The work of the Fungal Infection Trust (FIT) improves awareness, treatment and outcomes for all those affected by fungal disease. FIT is a small charity who have, over the years, supported the work of the NAC CARES Team, allowing them to maintain their unique work. Every pound raised will help the Trust continue to help people around the world. You can read more about their work here.
