Great job for a worthy cause. Take a tip though - post your route for each day on www.fetcheveryone.co.uk and you will be surprised how many runners will come out to watch and cheer you on. Just put leaving Point A at 9.00 a.m via axx, b xxxx and bxxx to finish in Point B

Fantastic... but why no publicity?? I'm sure you'd make much more money if people knew about it!!

Just read about this on Fetcheveryone.com. Anyone who can attempt even 30 miles in one day, never mind day in day out, gets my support.

Thank you for being alert and making that strong veer to avoid our collision outside the Mark & Spencers on Victoria on Saturday. You looked strong - keep up the great work.

Am I the only one who thinks that this is not a good idea? Only one months training and already injured! You will knacker your legs Eddie.

Good luck Eddie. And as others have said fetcheveryone.com would be a great place to drum up support!

Wow, that really made my poo-weather-and-stuck-in-a-dreary-office day. I’m well impressed (in fact, so much that I just sacrificed my LBD party budget and donated instead). Keep us up-tweeted :o) PS. Why not more publicity?

We were sat on top of a boat in Bradford-on-Avon, and we saw a guy holding an England flag running down the tow path towards us. We were gonna just cheer him on, then we realised it was Eddie!!!!!! We offered him beer, he declined, he just ask 'how fars the f**king bridge'!

I've just had an excited, and uncharacteristically breathless, phone call from my wife: "I've just seen Eddie Izzard running up Brass Knocker Hill!" I poured scorn on the idea. Surely she was mistaken... What would Eddie Izzard be doing running up absurdly named, and particularly steep, hills in Bath? Cheers Blippie
