Hayley’s Ultramarathon Challenge

The Llangollen Ultramarathon is taking place on 12^th June; it is a total of 31 miles, has a 10 hour cut off point and involves almost 7000ft of climbing—hitting both Moel Fferna and Vivod Mountain. The route follows two national paths in a loop, from Llangollen to Corwen, and then from Corwen back to Llangollen.

St Michael’s Hospice provides a range of services in Herefordshire and the surrounding area, to people living with a terminal illness. Hayley is aiming to raise at least £1000 for this great cause, with £360 already achieved. Hayley feels very passionately for the hospice; it is a charity close to her heart and she has raised money for them previously, through many other running challenges.

Hayley used to be a very avid runner before having her daughter five years ago. She has tackled everything from 5k runs, to triathlons, to marathons, including the epic London Marathon. Hayley also organised a marathon challenge seven years ago, named “Presley’s 5in5”, where she ran 5 marathons in 5 days. All of Hayley’s previous accomplishments have seen her raise over £4500 for St Michael’s Hospice and Air Ambulance.
