The four challenges Rachel is undertaking:
April 21st - London Marathon - Rachel will be wearing a bright yellow St Petrocs top and if you want track her its bib number 31523
June 14th - Scilly 60% - 38 km over four of the Isles of Scilly: St Martins, Tresco, Bryher, St Agnes - if you miss the cut off on any stage you literally miss the boat to the next stage.
Aug 2nd 7pm start - The BOYD (Bring Out Your Dead) - 24 hours of running a 5 mile loop which includes 500 steps. If you stop at any point for more than 10 minutes you're out! Only 9 runners completed in 2023.
Sept 14th - The Woods - 12 hours of a 4 mile loop in Tehidy Woods. Also available in 3,6 and 9 hour options.
