Jamie Laing’s 150‑Mile Ultra‑Marathon

Jamie Laing, the cheeky Made in Chelsea star, took on a five‑day, 150‑mile run from London to Salford for Comic Relief. He’s not a seasoned runner, but he laced up and ran nonstop, racking up over £2 million for the cause. Along the way his feet swelled so much he joked they looked like “Hobbit feet.” Fans and fellow celebs flooded social media with laughs and support, turning a personal challenge into a national fundraiser.

The route covered busy streets, quiet parks, and everything in between – a true test of stamina. Jamie posted daily pictures, so you could see the pain, the triumph, and the growing donation tally. By the end, his effort helped mark Comic Relief’s 40th anniversary with a massive cash boost for charities across the UK.

How You Can Join a Charity Challenge

If Jamie’s story sparks something in you, you don’t need to run 150 miles. Start small: sign up for a local 5K, a bike ride, or even a virtual lap‑around‑the‑track fundraiser. Pick a cause you care about, set a realistic goal, and share your progress online. Your friends will likely chip in, and the community vibe can turn a solo effort into a group win.

Here’s a quick checklist: 1) Choose a charity (think health, youth sport, animal rescue). 2) Decide on an activity you enjoy. 3) Set a fundraising target – even £50 counts. 4) Create a simple page on a donation platform, then post updates on Instagram or Facebook. 5) Celebrate milestones with a shout‑out or a small reward.

Getting involved doesn’t cost a lot of time or money, but the impact can be huge. Plus, you’ll feel the same adrenaline you get from a fast lap on the track – only this time it’s for a good cause.

Our site regularly features charity events linked to the car world: classic car auctions for youth racing programs, charity drift days, and even “donate‑a‑lap” campaigns where sponsors pay to name a section of a race. Check the latest posts to see how other enthusiasts are giving back.

Remember, the key is consistency. Whether you post a weekly update, host a small meetup, or simply wear a charity‑branded T‑shirt, every action spreads awareness. Over time those tiny steps add up to real change – just like Jamie’s marathon turned into millions for charity.

So, what’s your next move? Grab your running shoes, hop on a bike, or rev the engine of your favourite sports car and start a fundraiser today. The thrill of the ride and the joy of giving are a perfect match. Let’s keep the momentum going together!
