In short: Organised by Nina Hanger and her team of volunteers and all proceeds were going to her small charity 'Hangers Heroes'.
In full: As I was still two weeks behind schedule, this weekend was an ideal opportunity to try and catch up at least one of those weeks without having to travel too far. Saturday was The Challenge 2012 South Dorset Marathon, starting and finishing near Chickerell and on Sunday The Purbeck Marathon with the start and finish in Swanage. Knowing the areas these marathons were in, The Jurassic Coast and The Isle of Purbeck quite well I knew it was going to be a tough weekend of running, and just to make things just a little bit harder (I don't do easy) Patsi and I decided to go camping for a long weekend. We set off on Thursday with the car (a Ford Mondao estate) groaning under the weight of all our equipment, in the boot, on the back seats and on the roof rack - we even had our 15 month old Grandson Thomas in there somewhere and of course the kitchen sink - well two washing up bowls anyway. The weather was lovely and we drove straight onto the Sandbanks ferry and were soon on the other side in Studland and on our way to Nordon Farm campsite just on the outskirts of Corfe Castle. - If you would like to read more then check out my full blog here at http://60in60at60.com/2012/09/18/m37-challenge-2012/
