Info

We began the 1050 mile marathon at John o' Groats on Thursday 26 August 2010, aiming to complete the journey in less than four weeks. Indeed, we finished at Lands End on Friday 17th September - despite some extremely wet weather, mechanical problems and  physical issues along the way.



We are still raising money for Marie Curie Hospices: please give generously at www.justgiving.com/jogle-thelongway Or, you can buy one of the limited edition pin badges, suggested minimum donation £2. Contact Mark 0n 0044 7834 539685 or at mark.stokes59@btinternet.com to buy a badge.  As is always the case in our events, all of the money sponsored goes to the charity concerned.  We treat the 'ordeal' as a holiday(!) which we pay for out of our own pockets.

Day 7 Late Update

We're now at the Isle of Jura hotel on Jura.
So far we've covered more than 300 miles and raised £834 for Marie Curie cancer hospices.

Apart from watching Robbo's antics with a new tyre, the best bit of the afternoon's journey from Oban - Islay was seeing a Grey Seal (watching us) and three Dolphins racing alongside the ferry.
