Six-strong team tackling 24-hr CrossFit Marathon

Stockport Express

|

May 28, 2025

My name is Lisa Hillyard and myself and a group of five others will be taking on a 24-hour AMRAP CrossFit marathon to raise funds for St Ann's Hospice.

- BY LISA HILLYARD, HOSPICE SUPPORTER

The marathon will be taking place on Saturday, June 21.

The CrossFit marathon is a worldwide event with different teams competing. Every hour the team will be given an exercise, and they will have 60 minutes to complete 500 reps.

We won't even know what exercises will be doing until the beginning of each hour.

So, to be able to stay in the competition we will have to persevere through every challenge.
