Jonny Davies began his above-ground challenge on one of the hottest days of the year.
A man aiming to run the entire London Underground route above ground in 11 days, covering a distance of 570 kilometres, said the challenge is “really fun” despite the heat.
He said that “because the Northern line splits in so many directions, we had to run a section and get on the Tube and go back to that point and then run the next section”. He said: “I’ve run a few ultra marathons and other marathons but it was all leading up to do something like this in September, and then I officially started training for this about 20 weeks ago.
The president and general manager of JustGiving, Pascale Harvie, called Mr Davies “an inspiring role model for looking after your physical and mental health”.
