\n The challenge was undertaken by Andy Farnworth, along with Robert Wysocki, Eddie Birchall and Jason Grinnell on the road, with Paul Mockford supporting them, over 26 hours.\n<\/p>\n
\n Andy, founder of the Transforming Lives Group CIC, says that the challenge has so far raised more than \u00a33,000 for the organisation\u2019s health and wellbeing support project.\n<\/p>\n
\n He said: “This was a very tough challenge, riding through the night, and one of the hardest we have taken on to date.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cIt was an extremely challenging fundraising event, but as we were celebrating Mental Health Awareness Week, we wanted to do something that would push us to the limit, both mentally and physically.\n<\/p>\n

\n “Massive well done to my team.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cRobert, Eddie, Paul and Jason all have their own personal stories and they were absolutely fantastic, pushing themselves well outside their comfort zones. I could not be prouder of them.\n<\/p>\n
\n “This challenge was about more than the miles.\n<\/p>\n

\n \u201cIt was about showing the people we support that we will go the distance for them.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cOur project gives people something that cannot be prescribed, and that is community, connection and purpose.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cWe hope the people of Bolton will get behind us.”\n<\/p>\n
