We’ve all seen and been amazed by the accomplishments of our outstanding athletes over the past year or so, and now LimbPower have decided that there should be a sporting challenge that celebrates the athlete in all of us, no matter how hidden they may seem!
The Manic Marafun is a 26 mile challenge, but with a difference. Each participant only has to do one mile, or four laps of the track at the wonderful Stoke Mandeville Stadium, and to make it even more appealing, they can choose from a variety of wacky ways in which to complete it. Whether it be running, walking backwards, cycling, scooting, pushing a day chair or even doing the wheelbarrow with a friend, there are plenty of options for completing your mile and having fun while you do it!
This is a family day, and there will be a picnic and children’s entertainment to ensure that everyone has a great time, whether you are the finely honed athlete about to tackle a mile of skipping, or just there to watch the antics and socialise with friends.
The Manic MaraFun will be held on the 9th July at Stoke Mandeville Stadium in Aylesbury and is open to everyone. To take part in the MaraFun itself there is a registration fee of just £11 for adults and £1 for children, so now’s the time to dream up a suitably ‘Manic’ way of completing your mile and sign up!
If you can’t join us for the day at Stoke Mandeville Stadium you can take part virtually and complete your mile at home with your friends. You simply need to register and then upload your mile on Garmin, Strava, Fitbit or video yourself and send the evidence to LimbPower.
