BBC Radio Devon Speak with Alex Lyons

Our volunteer mentor, Alex Lyons was interviewed on BBC Radio Devon today about the monumental running challenge he’s set himself.

Alex has been a volunteer with us for over a year - mentor, trustee and treasurer - and on reaching his 50th birthday, decided to mark it by undertaking a fundraising challenge that would really test his endurance abilities.

Alex is running 50 half marathons in 50 weeks. At this point, he has just completed 20 and is 40% through his challenge. Alex spoke with Rick Edwards on BBC Radio Devon.
