Vernon continues his ULTRA Ultramarathon Challenge for Children in Need!

Zoe sets Vernon off on the second day of his ULTRA Ultramarathon Challenge for Children in Need! This morning he's starting in Derby!

Wake up and embrace the day with Zoe Ball in London and Vernon Kay in Derby (hopefully!).

Zoe will give Vernon his marching orders for the second day of his challenge, and she's also lined up a few surprises to keep him entertained along the way. But he needs your support to keep him going on his epic journey.

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 BBC 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.

Along with Tina Daheley on news, Richie Anderson on travel and Mike Williams on sport, she and the team have the best start to your morning.

There's also a daily Pause For Thought and your calls, voice notes and messages, as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
