Follow on Google News | Three Marathons, Three Countries, Three Months - One Man!By: Vapor Ricon Mike, 42, from Tickhill near Doncaster will start his challenge by undertaking The Wales Marathon in Tenby on 13th July. This will be followed on 6th September with The Highland Perthshire Marathon, Aberfeldy, Scotland and will finish with The Mablethorpe Marathon on 5th October. "This is an amazing challenge that I have set myself and I am already looking forward to each and every step," said Mike. "The charities that I have chosen are close to my heart with the National Autistic Society, Cancer Research and British Wheelchair Athletics Association all receiving an equal share of monies I raise." National Autistic Society has given great support to Mike and his family after his son was diagnosed with autism at the age of three whilst Cancer Research is a charity that funds vital research into the illness that affects so many people in different ways. Meanwhile, The British Wheelchair Athletics Association (BWAA) is a charity that Mike supports through his work at Vapor Ricon Europe Ltd, a leading manufacturer of transport and vehicle access lifts, which is one of the teams most significant sponsors this year. "The BWAA is growing in size and stature and is attracting athletes from across the globe who have a very real possibility of competing at the next Paralympics in 2016 and other major championships," Mike is currently undertaking a scheduled training programme to prepare for the events.
