Jamie Laing Comic Relief Challenge – Ultra Marathon Man for Red Nose Day – Live updates

Day 1 over and off – 4 more to go …Published at 18:02 Greenwich in the middle on March 17th

What a day it was for the Ultra marathon man from Radio 1, Jamie Laing. His challenge for comic recovery is really in progress, and he did the first day – 30 miles from London to Harpenden.

A lot has happened, let's look at the best parts from the first day …

Jamie made himself for his Mammoth Challenge this morning at 8:30 a.m., joined his wife Sophie Habboo's starting line to cheer him on.

He has been silent in the past three days who have been married to him for two years and have been with him for six years.

After Jamie had reached Hyde Park in London, he was welcomed by Sam MacGregor and Danni Diston Sporting Blonde Wücken and 48 other Laing lookalikes, which then joined for one kilometer of his run. A nice surprise for Jamie, probably a strange sight for everyone who thought they had an uneventful morning on foot through the park.

The healthy part of the day was when Matt Edmondson Jamie gave a bracelet by Matt's daughter with the inscription “Go”. What more motivation do you need?

In half of today's Ultra marathon, Jamie became a bit shaky on her feet. Physio Nick worked his magic with a quick massage and Jamie went again!

For Jamie it looked a bit hairy for Jamie when he approached the finish line today, but luckily Vick & Jerry were on site to motivate him with special messages of support.

The first was from Vick's mother Ady, the “many, many, many bright blessings!” Wanted to send!

Then Myles Smith chose Radio 1 with the British from 2025 to send Jamie his wishes for his last steps.

And finally the big, Kendrick Lamar alias Kung alias kung fu Kenny sent an incredible voiceenote only for Jamie. Unless we believe that Vick & Jerry pulled his leg – as if it hadn't been going through today.

Listen and convince yourself.
