Today I spoke to a number of people at Richmond Park Marathon (2022). Will create a post tomorrow. In the meantime feel free to browse around.
Note: The ads on this site are there because this is a free site, so WordPress will use this site to advertise, however I am not endorsed by any organisation so I can speak freely.
Previous posts from 1 to 50 marathons can be found at The Adventures of TyreGirl: http://www.tyregirl.com
Reaching 50 marathons, took me to the next level….TyreLady
My Purpose is:
- To complete 100 marathons/ultras by end of 2020 pulling a tyre
- To get communities to consciously reduce their single use plastic by other means over recycling because currently we are pretty “rubbish” at recycling plastics.
- To raise awareness of our disposable society by speaking at schools and encouraging organisations
Suggestions to reduce rubbish can be found by clicking on the “Plastic Challenges” tab. Have put a link here
If you want to give the Tyre Lady money, you can donate to one of her causes (EarthWatch) at https://earthwatch.org.uk/giving/donate
EarthWatch monitors the impact of our actions on our natural world.
However understand that societies resist the effort of change. Hence I pull a tyre in marathons and ultra marathons because we women will create change even when there is resistance.

Hey Steve – Thank you for visiting and great challenge. Whilst I don’t support fracking, my focus is just on single use trash. With the events that have happened at the end of 2017 and into 2018, changes are happening worldwide 🙂 Now moving towards the banning of single-use plastic trash and the circular economy….
May your campaign reach wide circles through education and providing alternatives to open people’s eyes away from their own convenience and their own self. All the best for your challenges TL 😀
