Richie sits in while Vernon takes on his Children In Need Ultra Ultra Marathon Challenge, with regular updates from the Big Man himself as he pounds across the country.

Powered only by his own two feet, Vernon Kay is travelling all the way from Victoria Park in Leicester - the site of Radio 2 In The Park – to the home of his beloved Bolton Wanderers, between Tuesday 14 and Friday 17 November. All to raise money for Children In Need.

Keep it Radio 2 to follow Vernon’s progress throughout the week, and take us with you on the 91Èȱ¬ Sounds app.

Visit bbc.co.uk/vernon for the latest news, photos and videos from the challenge, and to find out how to donate. And for more behind the scenes action, head to Radio 2’s Instagram & TikTok.

There'll be a few surprises along the way, and Vernon's pulled a favour from the Bolton Massive and roped in Paddy McGuinness to guest present Ten To The Top while he's taking on his challenge.

Whatever you're up to, Richie wants to hear from you and if you’d like to apply to take part in Ten To The Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk
