Competitor bio:

Sally Orange is an enthusiastic runner who is the first to claim she is not the fastest or the fittest, but what she lacks in speed, she makes up for with her colourful presence. If you were to ask her what time she is aiming for, she will undoubtedly reply ‘the time of my life!’. Having already completed a marathon on every continent, (dressed as different pieces of fruit! - see her surname), she has some idea of the magnitude of the task ahead, although it previously took much longer than 7 days! As a military veteran who was medically discharged due to mental illness, in keeping with the theme of the challenge, Sally will be raising money for 7 charities, supporting others with mental health challenges. She is determined to continue to break the stigma associated with mental ill health that has led to a global mental health crisis. What better way to do so than quite literally taking the message around the world!
