Help needed for Jesper Olsen with the Final Leg (England)

Dear Running Friends ,


Over the past two years I have been helping Jesper Olsen (www.worldrun.org) with his run around the world. On the 17th of October he will be arriving in Liverpool (from a week running in Ireland ) to start his finishing stretch to London. Im thinking he could aim for a finish in London by the 25th October.

Im needing help in various areas. These include planning a proper daily schedule, help finding a crew for Jesper, help finding lodgings anywhere on the route and any other suggestions or ideas.

Jesper is the real deal. He is a genuine ultra runner and I believe he has run every step of the way in his 25,000km plus journey. He has been a Great Ambassador for the sport and I hope the English Ultra running scene can help get him to the Finish Line.

Any ideas, thoughts or suggestions ?

Thanks

Look forward to hearing from you.
