Louise's 5k everyday for 365 days!

5k everyday for 365 days! · 25 November 2017
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
It's Monday 6th November 2017 and I've just had this crazy idea...
I've been in a weird place over the last couple of months. We had a missed miscarriage in May, and as I get closer to the estimated due date I'm finding I'm struggling more and more. I know I am unhealthy. 4+ years of infertility and 2 years of fertility treatment. It has taken its toll on my body and mind. I've felt the need to do something a bit mad, a little drastic. I want to get fit again, I want to be healthier both physically and mentally. I want to raise awareness of this terrible thing, of how it can affect people. I want to heal. And I need motivation. So I am here, putting it out there, that I am doing this crazy thing.
Starting from Saturday 25th November 2017 I will be running (or walking or crawling!) 5 km everyday for a whole year. 365 days. 1825 km.
Help me stay motivated! Cheer me on, come running with me, keep me on task, donate here! Help me raise £1825 for The Miscarriage Association. One pound for every kilometer.
The Miscarriage Association provide support and information to those who lose a baby in pregnancy. They need £200,000 a year to keep current services running, and they'd like to do much more.
