Matt Jordan – Taking on the Bob Graham Round

Matt was asked to provide a little summary of his achievement, but being Matt, his version was far too modest for something quite so impressive.

So I’ve decided to take matters into my own hands and give you my version instead. Because if he won’t shout about what he’s achieved, I will!

The Bob Graham Round is a 66-mile challenge across the Lake District, taking in 42 summits and around 27,000ft of ascent — all within 24 hours.

Matt took it on, battling some seriously brutal conditions along the way, with strong winds and heavy rain making an already incredible challenge even tougher.

I honestly couldn’t be more impressed and proud. Watching Matt take this on has completely opened my eyes to a whole new level of running. The determination, strength and sheer grit it takes to do something like this is incredible. An absolute champ in my eyes!
