Linda's Challenge 2011: The Ultramarathon

Over six days from 11 to 16 July 2011, Rhoda Bamsey will run an ultramarathon across the whole of the Western Isles, the chain of islands also known as the Outer Hebrides, off the north west of Scotland. The Western Isles is where Linda Norgrove grew up.

It's a distance of approximately 150 miles so Rhoda will be running the equivalent of six marathons in six days to raise much-needed funds for the Linda Norgrove Foundation.

She will also have company! Brian Hindson, a trustee of the Foundation, and John Conway, the Foundation's volunteer website developer, are going to complete the same route on bicycles.

We are hoping you will be able to support this ultramarathon in aid of the LInda Norgrove Foundation.
