My target 100 mi

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.

Getting back to it

Thursday 22nd Oct
Hi all, after sometime away back to work and lots of walking and steps in there and hoping to get more wlaks runs while the weather is pretty sketchy for cycling to add more miles and getting to the 100miles in Oct. Its bewn a mix of all sorts of cycling walking running and with the ever remider being present most recent my sons scans that everyone invloved in the journey of a child with cancer is always there to help and support. Friends for life 

Adding in a few miles

Saturday 10th Oct
So was able to get some jogging and walking miles in with a mix of short cycle. Son biking and me jogging next to him and a stop mid way at a park to. Hoping to get a jog in tomorrow morning to. Hope everyones doing good and every step counts so keep up the amazing work itll all be worth it and the blisters, pain, niggles all will pay off 

Slow but got it done
