Bicester soldier to attempt record run in bomb disposal suit

A BOMB disposal soldier is planning to raise £100,000 for two charities by running, cycling and swimming 1,754 miles in just 26 days. Warrant Officer Class Two (WO2) Si Hannaford, 42, is taking on the mammoth challenge to swim 21 miles, then cycle 1,000 miles from Land’s End to John O’Groats and finally run 733 miles from John O’Groats back to Bicester. Part of the challenge will see him run for the first mile wearing a full bomb disposal suit - weighing 5.6 stone - in an attempt to beat the fastest mile in a bomb disposal suit record of seven minutes and 24 seconds which was set by a British Army Solider in 2017.
