Thirty-eight-year-old Nadine France is tackling the daunting challenge to commemorate mum Laural who died in 2019 after a 10-year battle with breast cancer.
The runner of 15 years also wants to raise money for the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ to boost funds for research and raise awareness of the disease.
“Mum would be absolutely shocked by this challenge, but I think she’d also be proud because she was someone who gave a lot and cared about women prioritising their health,” France said.
She said the gruelling runs would be part of her healing process and a way to channel her grief into doing something positive.
"When mum was in her final days people were so kind so it's important for me to give back in some way."
France tackled the eighth Continent Half Marathon at Auckland Domain earlier this month.
With 11 races to go, she said she is looking forward to moving out of her comfort zone and at the same time seeing more of the country.

They would also like to talk to the two customers who were in the store about 2.30 pm on Saturday.
At that time, a man entered the store and stood behind a shelving unit while the sole staff member served two customers.
When the customers left, the man allegedly pointed a firearm at the staff member and demanded money.
He left the shop with an undisclosed sum, turned right onto Vincent St and walked towards Hopetoun Bridge.
Phone police on 105 and quote file number 210123/0838 or anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Construction during the holiday period has kept the infrastructure project on track for Tunnel Boring Machine work to start at the Mt Eden site in April.
“Since last Boxing Day our tireless crews have been going flat-stick in some pretty hot conditions and with hardly a breather – working seven days a week and sometimes around the clock,” said Nick Adams, North Auckland Line Deputy Construction Manager for the Link Alliance.
“Mt Eden’s big and complex with a lot going on and the holiday break’s been a great opportunity to keep the foot down firmly on the construction pedal and accelerate work. "
Mt Eden is home to the southern portal of the City Rail Link tunnel, New Zealand’s largest transport infrastructure project which will connect with the existing western Line.
The Link Alliance is delivering the main stations, tunnels and rail systems for the project.
Adams said the alliance's collaboration with KiwiRail over its closure of the western line for maintenance helped workers to forge ahead.
“With the line temporarily closed to trains, it made it safer for us to work in and around the rail corridor and complete a lot of our necessary work.”
The Link Alliance’s programme included track changes to prepare for the City Rail Link connection, relocating utilities, building retaining walls and new drains, piling and work associated with new bridges.
Meanwhile, there has been ongoing mining of the first 51 metres of tunnel to pave the way for the tunnel boring machine.
