An intrepid teacher will undertake a fund raising effort with a difference, this weekend.
Head-master of Cronk-y-Berry primary school, Rob Sellors, will be running and cycling a route which will take him past each of the Island's 43 schools.
He aims to run for 27 miles, cycle for 52 then run for a further 13, and is calling the challenge 'The School Run'.
Mr Sellors hopes to have the 'duathalon' completed in under 12 hours (audio file attached):
