Fit, fat and fifty three

Twelve weeks till the start of the Isle of Wight challenge and some weight needs to be lost!! It's one thing doing over a half marathon a day for four days but carrying fifteen stone ten pounds is another!!

The diet and fitness regime starts today - careful eating, plenty of water and pushing the runs up to two a week. We've done 100K in four days once and we'll do it again.

There are seven runners signed up and more are welcome. Support us if you can - click the JustGiving button, buy through the Amazon button or share this site with your friends.

2011 launch at the Curry House

The excitement is building as we head towards April 29, 2011. No, not the royal wedding (!!), but the start of this year's "four days running" adventure. We are running round the Isle of Wight!!

This is an endurance challenge and a way of raising funds for our charities. Last year we raised over £6,500 for CASPA, our Charity for young people with Autism PLUS other amounts for other charities. This year we are looking to raise money again. If you want to get us off to a flying start then click the JUSTGIVING button on the right.

Finally, it is a lot of fun. We are a team of all ages enjoying the delights of the Isle of Wight. All the main beauty spots will be covered so if you want to run?? Get in contact!!

Massive thanks to all supporters!! xx

Nearly all the money is in - from individuals, fellow runners and people we bumped into in pubs and on the streets!! AND the total looks like being around £6000!!!!

Massive thanks to you all, whether you are friends, family, fellow workers or just random people that we met on the run!! The money has already been put to good use.

We have started a new club at CASPA for youngsters aged from 8 to 11 and have gained £5000 more "matched" funding so we can guarantee to run the new club for at least a year.

Thanks again from all at CASPA and "fourdaysrunning"
