Sorry for the inconvenience, and happy racing everyone.

She has completed day two, 200 miles down and 200 to go.
For those not aware Mel and Marc Davies from Ceredigion are joining around 70 others in cycling 400 miles from Aleburgh to Borth in 4 days, and will finish in Borth on Wednesday afternoon.
Neil Davies and Leon Lewis also from Ceredigion are running a half marathon each on each of the 4 days so 52 miles in total also finishing in Borth on Wednesday.
All competitors spend the nights under canvass to make it more difficult.

If anyone wants to sponsor them then contact Mel. They are completing this in aid of SSAFA.
