The challenge
Carlisle to the Tyne,
without stopping.
Joe will complete the entire journey himself. Carlisle Castle to the Tyne Bridge, starting at 20:00 on Saturday 26 September 2026.
No overnight stop. No sleep. One continuous push. Through Saturday night and throughout Sunday, Joe will keep moving until he reaches the Tyne.
This isn’t about setting a record. It’s about doing something difficult to raise as much support as possible for Nepal.
