Miles From Hell...

Anyone who listens to Radio 1 is probably aware of the 'Miles From Hell' challenges being set all week for DJ Scott Mills in aid of Sport Relief.

For those who don't, let me summarise...for the past week Mills has been set a challenge everday, each challenge covering a mile in a very different way.


Day one saw him walk a mile around a London sewer (rather him than me); day two had him complete a mile around Kempton Park race course, dressed as a horse and being ridden by jockey Hayley Turner (who was banned at the time for being too harsh with her stick).

Day three was probably the hardest mile of the lot with Mills running (well, mostly walking) up 400 flights of stairs within some of London's tallest buildings including One Canada Square, Guy's Hospital, Centrepoint and The Gherkin.

As you can see from the image above, today's challenge (day four) was to run/walk a mile around a track whilst tied to none other than X Factor star, Chico Slimani. Yes, that's right...a three-legged race with Chico - poor Scott.

As of now, Scott's challenges have raised over £100,000 for Sport Relief with just one more challenge to go. I wonder what tomorrow holds.
