Local man to run 19 marathons in 19 days

A Manx resident will try to tackle 19 marathons over 19 days - all in the aid of charity.

Christian Varley is trying to raise money for the Manx Solidarity Fund - and will start the challenge this Friday.

He'll  be undertaking the challenge in full compliance with social distancing rules - his 26.2 mile route may change daily depending on conditions.
 
Christian will start the first of his marathons in Peel at 12pm on Friday and then follow a route to Douglas - before returning to Peel once more. 
 
Donations to the Fund can be made at www.manxsolidarityfund.com/donate or via its JustGiving page at www.justgiving.com/manxsolidarityfund
