Run 100 Miles in October 2026

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.

100 miles

Sunday 13th Sep
This October, I’ve decided to take on a challenge that is going to push me well outside my comfort zone — I’m running 100 miles throughout October to raise money for Young Lives vs Cancer.
That’s over 3 miles every single day for the whole month.
I know it’s going to be tough. There will be days when I’m tired, busy, or simply don’t feel like running, but whenever I feel like giving up, I’ll remind myself why I started because I can't run 🤦🏽‍♀️
Young Lives vs Cancer supports children, young people and their families when cancer turns their lives upside down. Their work provides practical, emotional and financial support at a time when families need it most.
Cancer doesn’t just affect the person who receives the diagnosis. It affects parents, siblings, friends and entire families. For young people, facing cancer can mean missing school, losing independence, putting plans on hold and dealing with experiences that no child or young person should have to face.
So, throughout October, every mile I run will be for those young people and families.
I’ll be sharing my progress along the way — including the good runs, the difficult runs, the tired legs and hopefully a few milestones!
If you’re able to donate, even £1 would mean so much to me. Every donation will help Young Lives vs Cancer continue supporting young people and their families through some of the hardest moments of their lives.
And if you can’t donate, sharing my fundraising page or simply cheering me on would mean just as much.
100 miles. One month. One very important cause. ❤️
Thank you for supporting me and, most importantly, supporting Young Lives vs Cancer.
