Overbury Estate resident Jude Dayne will once again be training to run the 2014 Malvern Hills Ultra Marathon.
On Saturday May 3rd Jude will be enduring the 52 mile Ultra Run along the Malverns. The Malvern Hills Ultra is a test of endurance as well as navigational skill. Entrants can choose various race distances, between 8 and 52 miles. The total ascent of the 52 mile race is over 8,000 ft.
Overbury Estate will be supporting her in her fundraising efforts to raise money and awareness for Maggies Cancer Centres. This wonderful charity offers free practical, emotional and social support to people with cancer. We are really lucky to have a centre so close to Bredon Hill, in Cheltenham, where you can simply drop-in at any time.
'Our centres are here for anyone with any type of cancer and their families and friends, offering the practical, emotional and social support that people with cancer need' explains Laura Lee, Maggie's Chief Executive.
We will be following Jude through her training programme of gruelling gym sessions and long distance runs up and around Bredon Hill. If you pass her on the hill then please cheer her along!
