    It has been done before - it was done in 2000 carrying a message for the Queen or something.  It got difficult around Dover apparently as it was quite dangerous on the roads and no alternative.  On that occasion there were lots of runners doing bits each or in groups.

    Sorry Hoose, you've put me in  the wrong place.  My area isn't on the list at all.  Can you put in a Hastings to Brighton category for me.  There's probably a Brighton to Southampton category as well!  I take it your geographical knowledge of the south east is as good as mine is of ooop north!
