Australian Runner Completes Mizen to Malin Run in 18 days...

Back at the start of August, I had a post up about Australian runner Simon Chodziesner who was running from Mizen Head in Cork to Malin Head in Donegal. True to the plan, he finished the journey on Tuesday the 18th of August.

That's a total of 568kms in 18 days which averages out as about 31.5kms or about 20 miles per day.

There should be a few more Malin to Mizen attempts taking place in the next month.

Australian to run from Mizen to Malin in August 2015



Simon Chodziesner from Australia is planning to run from Mizen Head to Malin Head during the month of August 2015.

From his support team........Simon’s biggest drive is his next big challenge and his passion for using his running to raise funds for charity. Through the Mizen to Malin challenge, Simon hopes to raise money for two charities close to his heart:
Friends of Letterkenny General Hospital - the local hospital where Simon's Donegal family have been well cared for over the years [ http://www.friendsoflgh.ie ]; their current project is the Friends of LGH Onconolgy Bus.

If you wish to support this worthwhile charity….

He is starting from Mizen Head in West Cork on Saturday 1st August and hopes to finish 18 days later in Malin Head at the Northern tip of Donegal on the 18th of August.

He also welcomes runners to join him for part of the route and to keep him company.
