What? Why? How? (sticky)

Hello and welcome,

Thanks for dropping by. I set this site up to track my progress towards the completion of my 2012 challenge. I'm aiming to travel 2,012km in 20.12 (appx) weeks in the gym or on the road. You can sign up yourself (or find out more) at this website.

Early on in the process I realised that the distance I would be covering would get me from Bristol, UK - where I live - to the outskirts of Rome, Italy. So I've been tracking my route along the way following this map.

I hope to raise a bit of money for Habitat for Humanity in the course of this - there's a justgiving page for that purpose. There is no obligation on anyone to donate - for me this is more about the process.

One-quarter down.


So today I went public... sharing the link with my colleagues at work. I hope that it inspires me to keep it going!

Also today, I hit 505km, which marks the quarter way point of the challenge and finds me on the outskirts of Arras, the capital of the pas-de-calais department of Northern France, home to not one, but two world heritage sights.

The quarter way mark has been reached in just over 4 weeks, suggesting that, even with a couple of holidays planned, I should still be able to hit the 20.12 week target.
