Wow.

I don’t even know where to begin.

When I signed up to take on the challenge of completing 5K every day this month for Young Lives vs Cancer, I knew it would push me physically and mentally. What I didn’t expect was the incredible amount of support, kindness, encouragement and generosity that would come my way from so many people.

Today was Day 1.

My goal was simple: get out the door, complete my 5K, and start the month strong.

Instead, I ended up doing nearly 9K in total — 5K running and 4K walking. Somewhere along the way I realised I was actually enjoying myself, so I just kept going. There were definitely moments where my legs were questioning my decisions, but knowing why I was doing it kept me moving forward.

This challenge isn’t just about fitness, steps, kilometres, or ticking off a daily goal.

It’s about supporting young people and families whose lives have been turned upside down by cancer.

Cancer is something that has touched so many of us. Whether it’s a family member, a friend, a colleague, a neighbour, or someone we love dearly, most of us know the impact it can have. It affects entire families, changes futures, and asks people to find strength they never should have had to find.

That’s why Young Lives vs Cancer does such important work.

They help ensure that young people facing cancer, and their families, don’t have to face those challenges alone.

To everyone who has donated already, shared my fundraising page, sent me a message, wished me luck, or simply taken the time to support what I’m doing — thank you.

Thank you for believing in this cause.

Thank you for helping me make a difference.

Thank you for turning what started as a personal challenge into something that feels much bigger than just me.

Every donation, no matter the size, helps support young people and families who need it most. Every share helps spread awareness. Every encouraging message gives me that little extra push to lace up my trainers and get out there again tomorrow.

So from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Day 1 is done.

The challenge continues tomorrow.

The legs might be a little sore, but the motivation has never been higher. 💪💛

Here’s to the next 29 days, countless kilometres, and one giant collective message to cancer:

Not today. 💛

We’re taking on 5k a Day in June for Young Lives vs Cancer.

We’ll be completing 5k every day from 1st to 30th June to help raise vital funds for children and young people with cancer.

Young Lives vs Cancer help families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. But every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer. Make a donation and show your support today.

Just a £26 donation could fund an hour of support from a Young Lives vs Cancer specialist social worker, ensuring children, young people and families always have someone by their side throughout their cancer journey.

Thank you for your support.
