John Bishop's Tweets from Hell
Today John Bishop will begin his Week of Hell. The comedian has five days to travel 290 miles from Paris to London.
John will be joined by a few familiar celebrity faces - Davina McCall, Denise Lewis and Freddie Flintoff - as he undergoes his Week of Hell. You can also help John by sponsoring him.
Even though the 45 year-old has been busy in training, he has still found time to Tweet about his training and progress.
Check out some of John's Tweets before his Week of Hell began; check back during this week to see John's updates.

@MarkCavendish 27 Feb: Good luck to @JohnBishop100 & the crew starting their 5day challenge for @sportrelief in Paris today. Cycling, rowing, running. #nuts
@sportrelief 27 Feb: Traffic is fierce. Lucky he has someone with a tad of experience to help him for the 1st mile or 2 @chris_boardman.
@sportrelief 27 Feb: Traffic a nightmare. It's like the Italian job this. Except in France. And on a bike.
from Levallois-Perret, Hauts-de-Seine
@Chrishoy 27 Feb: All the very best to @JohnBishop100 for his amazing @sportrelief 5day cycle/row/run challenge starting today!
@JohnBishop100, 26 Feb: Here is something scary BT have made for the @sportrelief challenge. Do I really look that bad?
@JohnBishop100, 25 Feb: In London for match and @CHRISDJMOYLES party. Taking it easy for last days of rest before @sportrelief kicks off
@JohnBishop100, 21 Feb: The issue is we want to row from Fr to Eng and they won't let us. @sportrelief @ThisisDavina and @flintoff11 all over twitter. #letthemrow
@JohnBishop100, 21 Feb: This is the crew today - who wouldn't want to be in a small boat with this lot ?
@JohnBishop100, 20 Feb: A @sportrelief training row tomorrow and my bum will be on this sheepskin rug from @ThisisDavina. My a*se can't wait!
@JohnBishop100, 18 Feb: You know training has taken over your life in a negative way when a friend sends you this in the post!!!
@JohnBishop100, 15 Feb: Not something I think will be a problem on the @sportrelief challenge unless France has changed a lot since I was there
@JohnBishop100, 14 Feb: In Cape Town training in the warm. Fantastic bike ride but spoke broke and back wheel buckled- I am too big. In Hout Bay waiting for a taxi!
@JohnBishop100, 9 Feb: Angry chaffing now cooling-thats a sentence I never thought I would write! Post marathon hunger hit-early start so got to sleep - Night :)
@JohnBishop100, 8 Feb: Running a marathon distance around Liverpool tomorrow - route not decided but wave if you see me-I will have a red face moving slowly !
@JohnBishop100, 7 Feb: 90 minute row-would be boring if it wasnt for Jo Whilley on R2, not sure I appreciate the organ show afterwards as much.
@JohnBishop100, 6 Feb: On 27 Feb, I’ll try to cycle, row and run 290 miles from Paris to London in just 5 days for @sportrelief. Am I mad? #BishopsHell
