Support Rob on his worthy cause

By Mark Stevens

Exeter Chiefs Academy Strength & Conditioning coach Rob Beddard is putting together his final training plans ahead of the gruelling 'Race to the Stones' Race.

The 'Race to the Stones' race is a fully supported 100km route following in the footsteps of Romans, Vikings, farmers and traders along the iconic Ridgeway.

Competitors, including our very own Rob, will pass Iron Age forts, ancient burial chambers, cross the mighty Thames and the mystical down-lands of Salisbury plain on their way to the finish line at the 3,000-year-old stone circle at Avebury.

Alongside close friend Matthew Donnelly, Rob aims to complete the testing route in one day, rather than the two-day option, in aid of the very worthy Teenage Cancer Trust.

Rob and Matthew are now calling on the extended Chiefs family to back their bid by donating to the cause through their Just Giving page.
