I'm taking on the Run 50 Miles in October Challenge

Did you know that 1 in 8 men in the UK will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime?

I’m taking on the Run 50 Miles in October Challenge for Prostate Cancer Research to change this and help make a difference to men and their families who have been affected by prostate cancer.

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

Thank you for your support! 💙🧡

Back on form today

Wednesday 21st Oct
Back on form today after the left knee was really bad yesterday. Onwards and upwards.
I received my medal for raising £150 this morning.

Bad knee pain

Monday 19th Oct
I've had to ease up the last couple of day, the pain around my left knee in particular has been pretty bad. I have therefore cut back to around 1.5 miles for the next few days to give it a bit of a rest.
Thank you all for your support.

Day 17, 50 mile target reached

Saturday 17th Oct
Hi guys, thank you all for your support. I have reached my 50 mile target and have set a new target for the month of 75 miles which I hope to achieve with time to spare.

Pushing on

Friday 16th Oct
Pushing on today, hit 49 miles. So close to the 50 miles target. Right foot felt much better, but my left hip and knee started to play up more.

Blistered foot

Thursday 15th Oct
Foot is very painful again today so it's being rested a bit today, so I probably will only do a mile or so today.

£150 target reached

Thursday 15th Oct
Hi all, my initial target of £150 has been reached. 
I have now increased the target to £175 many thanks to all who have sponsored and supported me.

14th Day

Wednesday 14th Oct
After 2 days off because of the large blister on yhe ball of my right foot I have done 3.2 miles today.  My foot is not too good, but better than it was. Onward towards 50 miles.

Blister on my foot.

Monday 12th Oct
No walking today, I have a big blister on the ball of my right foot. Need to rest it for a day or two to recover, then back to the challenge. Good job I've been putting in the steps to get in front of the target.
