Local man Matthew Mulhern is currently running from John O’Groats to Lands End in 30 days. He is half way at the moment, having run on average 30 miles a day for 15 days straight.

Matt from Eastbourne is running the challenge completely solo and unsupported with just his heavy backpack and one man tent. With a few bnb stays in between also.

So far he has raised £1748 for the Running Charity, an independent charity harnessing the power of running to support young people who are experiencing homelessness or manage complex needs. His goal is £2000 and he is due to finish in Lands End on the 6th July.
