Five Counties Challenge in aid of The Fire Fighters Charity.

Sunday 7th September 2008

Varying distances from 15 to 100 miles around the Midlands

The route will be a circuit covering the five counties of Shropshire, Worcestershire, Warwickshire, West Midlands and Staffordshire. There will be a marshal point at a Fire Station in each county which will serve as a starting/finishing point.

You can start and finish at any of the marshal points. The shortest leg possible is around 13 miles and the full circuit will be just over 100 miles. The challenge will be to complete your proposed route (whether it’s one, two or more legs):

Telford - Kidderminster = approx 22 miles
Kidderminster - Alcester = approx 24 miles
Alcester - Northfield = approx 18 miles
Northfield - Codsall = approx 25 miles
Codsall - Telford = approx 13 miles

Riders are only required to raise a minimum sponsorship of £50 and all money raised will go to The Fire Fighters Charity which supports injured fire fighters and other fire service personnel and their families during times of illness, bereavement and hardship.

Enrolment is just £10.
