Daniel Rochard from Bath is set to run 3 marathons in 3 days along the North Cornwall coast path from Padstow to Lands End in aid of the Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity.
Daniel is taking part as running gives him the freedom to feel like a child again and he wants all children to be fit and healthy enough to enjoy the freedom of running, the smell of the sea and the wonder of the British Coast.
Daniel has entered the Atlantic Coast Challenge organised by VO2, and is prepared for whatever the weather has to offer.
He said: “It’s such a fantastic cause and I’m looking forward to raising as much money as possible. 80 miles in 3 days is a long way especially on the Cornish coastal path. My feet might even get do some soothing paddling on route!”
Laura Savory, Senior Fundraising Manager at Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity said: “We’re so grateful to Daniel for his generosity and support.
“The money raised will help to make a huge difference to young patients and families from across the UK”.
