Cycle 300 Miles in June

I'm taking on the Cycle 300 Miles in June Challenge for Prostate Cancer Research

Hello and thanks for reading this. Did you know that 1 in 8 men in the UK will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime? This time last year I knew very little about it, but now, due to my Brother Clarks diagnosis last year I know a lot more about it.  I'll always remember that phonecall from Clark to tell me his news. Time stood still......

Due to early detection, an advancement in science and technology, Clarks journey is looking positive and we continue to all think positive thoughts. 

Therefore I’m taking on the Cycle 300 Miles in June Challenge for Prostate Cancer Research to raise some money to advance research and help make a difference to men and their families who have been affected by prostate cancer.

Due to work commitments I'll probably ride fewer, longer rides  but will ensure I keep my Blog updated. 

Please support me during this challenge by donating what you can to Prostate Cancer Research (PCR). Every donation you make helps advance PCRs mission to create a world free from the impact of prostate cancer.

Thank you for your support!   Love Amanda xxxx💙🧡

Another busy week with little time to train but getting there! Busy week ahead but will be doing little and often to hit the 300 miles. Weather looking glorious for the week ahead! I also have to fit in my Harry Styles concert! 🥳💕

Being honest a combination of work and life stuff has made the challenge slightly harder last week or so however I am pleased with progress and absolutely over the moon with the Total raised so far. WOW!  Getting a notification coming in makes it all worthwhile. THANK YOU! xxxxxxx
