26.2 miles is a long way!
Especially if you’re travelling under your own steam. It took me 2hrs 11m to cycle that far on Sunday - only a couple of minutes under the new women’s world record to run the distance…
Still, I was doing it because I’ve been helping my friend Jess to train for the London marathon recently, and she was running down in London on Sunday too, in a very respectable 3hrs 45m.
She even got her picture in the paper, and has raised £1000 for local charity Romsey Mill.
