I'm taking on the Run 50 Miles in October Challenge for Prostate Cancer Research

Did you know that 1 in 8 men in the UK will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime? My father, father in law and a number of friends have been through it. 

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! 💙🧡

A huge thank you to my generous sponsors so far. I’ve had to increase my target twice! Keep it coming!

Getting ready

Thursday 17th Sep
So my schedule for October is basically 2 miles a day with 3 miles on Saturdays when I do Parkrun, but with rest days on Thursdays and Sundays. I have been running twice a week up to now so gradually increasing frequency. This will give me a bit of flexibility in case I can’t run on any given day. Today was my first “extra” run to try out my 2 mile course.

Thank you to my Sponsors
