CHRIS DROPS IN AT PIRELLI STADIUM ON CHARITY MISSION

13 June 2018

CHARITY fundraiser Chris Cowlin has reached Burton Albion's Pirelli Stadium on his journey around all 92 Premier League and EFL clubs.

Football mad Chris is on day 10 of his trek and he isn't only driving to the  grounds but is running around each stadium.

He will drive over three thousand miles and will run approximately 92 kilometres (57 miles) overall around the  stadiums.

Chris will visit teams from the Premier League, the Championship, League One and League Two  (based on the 2017/2018 season).

Running around 92 stadiums will be the equivalent of running more than two marathons in under two weeks, all in aid of the charity Willow - which is the only national charity working with seriously ill young adults aged 16 to 40 to fulfil uplifting and unforgettable special days. 

Chris is no stranger to fundraising, having raised more than £40,000 for various charities during the last 10 years.

He is a Tottenham Hotspur season ticket holder and he has competed in several running events in the past few years including the London Marathon in 2012.   

Chris started the challenge on Monday, June 4 and it will end on Friday, June 15. So far he has raised more than £14,400.

Chris said: "I am so excited by this challenge, it is something different and it's all over the country. I have heard and read  that many fans have done the 92 grounds, but no one has ever done this challenge before, running around all of the grounds."
