16 Rounds of Golf in 4 days!
64 miles of walking (2.5 marathons)
64 Hours of golf (16 hours a day non-stop )
288 HOLES
1400 Shots
After being inspired by HelpHarryHarryHelpOthers Drop in
Cancer Centre and hearing all about their latest #challenge16 event ,I wanted to do something to support the campaign that really does go the extra mile and push me to my absolute limit. The four days of extreme physical hardship that I will endure is not a patch compared to what the centres patients are going through and this is my way of helping out in the best way that I can for such a wonderful cause.
On 7th – 10th July 2016 starting at 5am every day I will
play 4 rounds of golf each day. This means I will in total play 16 rounds of golf across 4 courses playing for 16 hours per day and walking over 16 miles per day too. One day would be hard but to achieve this but 4 days in a row will be a truly intense challenge, as it will be the equivalent of walking 2.5 marathons and taking around 1400 shots within 64 hours.To top it all off, all this will be done on around 4 hours sleep per night, not even enough time to recuperate before I start all over again!
The money raised from my challenge will be used to take 49 people from the Drop in Cancer centre away for a day of respite including travel to London, a nice meal and a chance for them to see a light-hearted west end show before we travel back. For me it is about giving the Cancer patients and their families a day out to look forward to so I hope you can all get behind my latest Crazy Golf challenge and dig deep to help make this happen!
Lots of love
