Will Vernon have made it to the end of today’s journey yet?

As Vernon nears the end of his second mammoth day of walking, Jo has the best tunes to get him there!

This week, Vernon has just 4 days to get himself from Victoria Park in Leicester to the stadium of his beloved Bolton Wanderers.

As Vernon nears the end of his second mammoth day of walking, Jo has the best tunes to get him there!

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.
