MICA Travels are a group of family and friends that are dedicated to raise awareness of Bile duct cancer and sepsis, two illnesses that claim 1000’s of lives each year and are barely known about. I lost my wife; our sons lost their mother and many others lost a dear friend. We as group will be doing a series of endurance activities to raise money for these charities as a lasting memorial to Carol, so that our sudden loss is not in vain.

Lockdown Challenge Day 23

The last Friday of the challenge, and what a miserable start to the day, nothing to be seem but fog and more fog!

Lockdown Challenge Day 20

End of Day 20 and we are nearly through our 1500 mile journey, just 2.2 miles short or 1600 total.

However I must add one of our team members gave us some news today, his 2nd child was born which is ...

Lockdown Challenge Day 19

Day 19 and we pass the 3/4 waypoint for mileage.

The nights have really started to draw in now so the evening cycles are become less common, and we are now almost exclusively relying on getting the feet on the ground and plodding the miles out.

8 Days to go
