I’m running 100 Miles in October for Young Lives vs Cancer.

I’ll be running 100 Miles in October, from the 1st to the 31st, 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. With practical and emotional support. With someone always there. A social worker that gets it.
With places to stay near hospitals. With campaigning to make health, welfare and social care work better. To champion, to problem solve and bring about change. 


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.

Isn't the body amazing!

Wednesday 28th Oct
Well I've pushed through hip pain and calf pull today and managed 5 miles run with a lovely friend Sarah and 2 miles with the dogs. So determined, all the donations is hugely helping. Let's raise as much as we can guys!!!!

4 days left...

Tuesday 27th Oct
22 miles left to get in... I'm so impressed with all the support I have had from the wonderful donators, is that a word? Anyway, last week was a write off, full of cold and felt shocking, now I'm trying to get 5 miles a day by a mixture of run, walk and hockey to hit my target. My calf was in pieces at start of the month and now my left hip thinks it's 95 years old... but I'm determined to get this done... 2 games of hockey on Saturday will be my finale! 

Old Lady Legs!

Just hit 40 miles and £250, thankyou to everyone that has supported so far. Really had to be careful with a knot in my calf after Saturdays hockey game, don't want to make it worse, just about managed 3 miles today, but very slow and steady. Huge thankyou to Angel and Sarah for getting out with me. 60 miles to go!!!! 🤯😬😆

£200 reached!!!

Tuesday 6th Oct
Huge thankyou to all of you that have supported me so far, hugely greatful for all of your donations. Definitely helping to push me around. Just hit 16 miles this morning, a long way to go still but I will keep pushing! Angel is also doing amazing, he's not feeling 100% but still hit the roads last night. Please share my fund raising page with friends. Thankyou all. ❤️

Up and running!

Friday 2nd Oct
Blown away by everyone that has supported us already, 2 days in and smashed my fundraising target! Definitely helped me get up and out in the heat this morning, last run on holiday before we head home. Thankyou everyone, keep sharing!x

The miles start in Tenerife!

Wednesday 30th Sep
We have had a couple of short runs while on holiday, so it's not a shock to the system when it starts! Let's do this October!!!!

Getting prepared

Tuesday 15th Sep
As we creep closer to October I am starting to think about how I will get these miles in over a very busy month, keeping in mind the first 3 days of Octkber I am in Tenerife, the running gear is coming with me. Going to try and do some mixed distance over the month and Saturdays are all about Hockey so will be clocking my miles while on the pitch. Please give what you can guys. ❤️
