Running The English Channel

Today I completed my first "The Conquerors" challenge, "The English Channel". 21 miles over 11 days.

I've been out on a run every day this year. Mainly 3km runs, one 5km. I like the idea of having something to run for so signed up with "The Conqueror Challenges". You pick which challenges you wish to join and set how long you want to complete it in. I am currently leaving the completion periods at default as they seem to give plenty of scope for illness or injury.

At the end of the challenge you are sent a physical medal which recognises your achievement. Every 20% of the distance through your challenge the company plant a tree. There are various notes on the virtual route that you are running which are sent to you as you pass milestones on the path.

We'll see how long the medal takes to arrive and what the quality of it is like.

The next challenge I've signed up for is the "Flower Route", 66km and I have 8 weeks to complete it.
