Story

Every year I try to think of a new challenge. Normally I don't do for a Charity but this year I'd like to do a biggie....

I was 43 on February the 2nd 2020. A special date as you can read it backwards and forwards and it's the same 02022020.  I like 2s so based on this my challenge was decided. 

I will complete 22 individual 22,222 step walks/runs over the next 12 months.

I work away so to achieve this challenge I will need to do 2 each week I'm home. Which works out as roughly a Marathon a week. 

The money raised will go directly to Addison's Disease Self Help Group to help people with adrenal insufficiency,  steroid dependency and Addison's Disease in the UK. Addison's disease is an endocrine disorder. This non-profit charity helped my family understand my husband's illness better.

About the charity

Founded in 1984, we're the UK and Ireland charity for all affected by Addison's disease and adrenal insufficiency. We work to support and promote better medical understanding of this rare, life-threatening condition. All donations go to our 'unrestricted' funds, to help us in this vital work.
