Hi I'm Andy Knight and this is my blog about a crazy year long challenge I have set myself.
By doing a different endurance challenge each month I hope to raise awareness and money for Springboard Opportunity Group who do
great work with disabled children and provide amazing support for their families.

Day 2 - that was hard work!

Well with the previous day only taking 4 and a half hours I started to think that this challenge would be ok.

That thought went quite early in to day to as I got lost after only a couple of miles! So after a long 5 hours 16 mins I completed day 2.

Today I got done over by triple H, not the WWE wrestler but Heat, hills and heavy rucksack!

The only good thing about finishing today was the fact that my shoulders hurt so much from carrying my rucksack is that I haven't noticed how much my leg hurts!

My post run ritual of cold bath compression tights and food worked a treat yesterday as my legs were ok this morning and have not been too bad today.

Now without being the first person to moan about the the sunny weather and heat, it was bloody hot today and I now look like a white van man with a tan/sunburn down the one side of my body!

Fortunately I won't have my rucksack with me tomorrow so I can give my shoulders a rest before having to carry it again on Friday.

Thanks to my brother and his good lady Su for picking me up tonight and letting me crash at theirs. They will be my drop off and pick up team again tomorrow as well.

So lets see what tomorrow brings maybe I can tan the other side of my body!
