Xander does 1000 miles (41 marathons)
for the children of Great Ormond Street Hospital
Xander, Maths Teacher & Comedian, adopted his son many years ago and is still incredibly grateful
for the support the NHS gave to his son when he was very ill as a baby. “The NHS gave my son life
and I want help other children by raising money for them this Christmas.”.
Instead of opening his usual Advent Calendar on the 1st December, FitXander began his gruelling
task of travelling 71Km each day, no breaks, until Christmas Day.
"The challenge is like traversing the full length of Britain from Land's End to John o' Groats and
then doing an extra 200 miles just for fun”, says Xander. “But I’m pretty sure it won’t be much fun“
he quickly adds.
Xander Platz has taken on the epic challenge of doing one Olympic Triathlon (plus 20km!) every day
of Advent to raise money for the children of GOSH. Each day he will cover 71km via: 1.5 km Swim, 60
km Bike, 10 km Run.
