An award-winning landlady is swapping pints for plimsolls and running the Great Wall of China.
Becky Newman, landlady of The Bricklayer's Arms, in Waterman Street, Putney, is taking on the challenge to raise money in memory of her sister.
The 45-year-old has raised more than £10,000 for the charity after her sister Helen suddenly died of a brain haemorrhage in 2005.
Last year she ran the gruelling North Pole marathon in arctic conditions for Headway South London, a charity that supports people with brain injuries.
This time round she will be up against sweltering heat and high altitude of the Great Wall of China.
The landlady said: "With the North Pole marathon I had to face and endure freezing conditions but on a flat, icy surface.
"This is the opposite, I will be climbing upwards in incredible heat in high altitude.
"I’ve heard it can add up to 50 per cent onto your normal time. This is going to be a thrilling but tough challenge."
Ms Newman is aiming to raise £5,000 for Headway, with all donations going directly to charity as she self-funds her trip.
