At the weekend Kettering Firefighters from White Watch completed their challenge of the Boughton Backyard Ultra, to raise money for the Charity that supports Firefighters recover from injury and ill health. The challenge involved 24hrs of running a 4.2 mile course in the grounds of Boughton House near Kettering - that's 50 miles each! 🏃🏼
From midday Saturday to midday Sunday they ground it out in varying weather, from hot sun to driving rain in the darkness. Working closely as a team, they helped each other through the challenge with an amazing support crew made up of colleagues and family. There were some high highs and low lows! All of which they can laugh about now and made for some great memories! 💪🏼
So far they have raised £2,409 for the Charity which helps them stay well and ready to help the community. With a little help from you, they are hoping to break through that target of £2,500!! 👏🏼
Thank you to everyone who has donated to the just giving page so far and for other donations like head torches, banners and all the other contributions, however small they may seem to you.
