Sam not only completed the run in 12 hours and 37 minutes, he raised an amazing £4,625. He also came in 12th out of about 400 people.Sam said "This probably could be the hardest thing I ever actually do, a lot of dark moments thinking would my legs actually get me to the finish, but pretty pleased to come 12th out of about 400 people. "Sam completed the 100KM run around 9pm on the 8th June in Kendal and was back home the following morning for his Charity Day in memory of Chris Moran with Westgate Common ARFLC where there was a massive turnout and more money raised in aid of SCARD this time.
