In 2009 New Zealander Mal Law made history by becoming the first person ever to run NZ’s seven Great Walks in just seven days – a total distance of 360 kms in the longest week of his life. It was an adventure to honour the memory of his brother Alan, who died as a teenager from leukaemia. In completing the 7in7 Mal raised more than $85,000 for the Leukaemia & Blood Foundation of NZ and so helped make a huge difference to people suffering from this cruel illness.

Inspired by this success Mal is now dedicating more of his time to organising another great 7in7 Challenge late in 2010. Seven more iconic trails, seven more gruelling days, the same great cause. The Twin Lakes Marathon from Lake Hawea to Lake Wanaka and Glendhu Bay will be the first run of the 2010 7in7 Challenge.
