Sticky's 1000 Mile Parkour Challenge

As keen amateur or professional athletes, we all have obstacles to overcome, some small and some the size of buildings...enter one of the UK's leading urban athletes Johnny 'Sticky' Budden - a man who literally overcomes building-sized obstacles for a living. Now 'Sticky' faces his biggest challenge and needs YOUR help!

You've almost certainly seen Johnny on television in numerous commercials thrilling us with seemingly impossible leaps and jumps that would terrify most of us just to watch. Now Sticky is facing his biggest challenge a 1,000 mile parkour run from Northern Scotland to Paris to raise money for Motor Neurone Disease. "What I do is incredibly physical; I use every muscle in my body to practice parkour" explains Johnny. "When I came across MND and read what it does to the body, how it takes away people's ability to move, I knew I wanted to help raise as much money and awareness for the MND Association as possible."

Johnny will be the first person to use parkour to get from the most northern part of the British Isles to Paris. Parkour is the physical discipline of training to get from point A to point B as fluidly and efficiently as possible by overcoming any obstacle within one's path by adapting one's movements to the environment.

"I live for pushing myself and spreading happiness through parkour. Whilst there will be a lot of endurance running (a marathon a day) I will be spending time in cities, training with kids and locals before continuing my run."
