My target 150 kms

I’m taking on 5k a Day in June for Young Lives vs Cancer.

I’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.

One week into the challenge

Monday 8th Jun
Hi, everyone! A week has already gone by, and I’ve managed to move at least 5 km every day. I’m super proud of my progress, because on Saturday I completed my first 5 km in under 25 minutes. Yesterday we resumed our rowing training and covered 8 km (unfortunately, rowing isn’t an option in the activity settings, so I logged it as a walk). I’m excited to start this week feeling fit and motivated, and I hope the weather gets better soon! Please support us on this journey and help “Young Lives vs Cancer” with a small donation. We’re grateful for every single pound. Thank you so much, and hopefully see you again soon here on the blog xx Julia

4 days into the challenge

Thursday 4th Jun
Hello everyone! I’ve been taking part in the challenge for four days now and it’s going really well! I’ve managed to cycle to work daily, even in the rain, and have covered 7 km every day so far. Today, after a short break after having completed six races last week, we’ve started rowing training again. So, in addition to the 7 km on the bike, I’ve also done 5 km on the ergometer today. Help us on this journey and support children and young adults in their fight against cancer. Even a small donation of a few pounds can have a big impact! I’ve taken the first step and made a donation. Follow my lead and make a difference!
Hope to see you soon, Julia x

First day of “5k everyday in June“

Monday 1st Jun
Hi everyone! This is my first blog post here on my profile, and as today is 1 June, the 5km challenge has begun – and I’ve already clocked up over 7km today by cycling to work instead of taking the bus. By the way: I work in a cancer research lab in Oxford, focusing on leukaemia and lymphomas. If you’d like to support the research and all the people fighting cancer, please help me with this fundraising campaign by making a donation. Even a small donation can make a big difference!
