On Friday 29th July 2022, I will be riding 100 miles to raise money for The Christie. 

The Christie is the charity associated with the hospice that supported the care of my fiancé's mum before she passed away 11 years ago. Stephen has raised thousands of pounds for The Christie, but due to instances of ill health in the last two years, has had to stall his fundraising efforts. I want to raise as much money as possible for him.

Ordinarily, riding 100 miles shouldn't be an issue. However, in June, I had two chest infections, COVID-19 and pneumonia simultaneously - a lovely mix. I have tried to be careful in returning to activity, and so far have got to about 60minutes of cardio exercise in one go. I'll need to multiply this by at least 6 times to achieve the 100 miles.

We are getting married in August, and I would like to be able to tell him on our wedding day that I have raised a significant amount of money for a charity that means everything to him. 

It's a surprise, so I'm having to do my best to keep a secret...

Please help and give as much as you can :)
