Race 10: Milton Keynes - First marathon of 2019

Race 10: Milton Keynes - First marathon of 2019

Emma Preston and Clint Nykamp kicked off the New Year with their 10th race in the 12 Marathons Challenge on Saturday 5th January. This month, the pair ventured to Milton Keynes. This was Emma’s second time at the venue and Clint’s third visit. The calming lake, fairly flat course and frequent drinks stations along the lake circuit has made this one of their favourite locations. While everyone was busy stuffing their faces and opening presents over the festive break, Clint and Emma continued to train for their marathons. The commitment involved in this year-long challenge is evident, as even bank holidays did not apply to their training schedules.  Congratulations Emma and Clint on an amazing achievement! They are so close to the end of the challenge, please support them by donating here.   Coming up: 16th February – Kidderminster2nd March – Walton-on-Thames (THE FINAL RACE)   Cheer, run, or donate today! Emma Preston Race time: 6 hours 1...
