Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am raising money for 'My Name'5 Doddie Foundation' as two members (and their families) of Newtown Football Club family have sadly been affected by this Motor Neurone Disease in the past few years. Kelvin Board (Husband) and son Matt ,( past and present players respectively), wife & mum Julie Board sadly passed away from MND on 22nd November 2018, just 9 days before her 60th birthday. There is currently no cure for this disease but money raised can help towards vital research and treatments to help reduce the impact it has on daily life. During Covid-19 many charities are suffering as a result of lack of Money and I want to do something to help.
I have chosen to take part in the 4x4x48 challenge that became well known due to an American ultramarathon runner and former U.S Navy Seal David Goggins. An inspiration man who kept getting rejected but did not give in, proving anything is possible. This challenge requires me to run 4miles, every 4 hours for 48 hours, something I will be doing in my schools sports hall. Students at school will be helping me prepare for this and lessons throughout the week will be linked to my event. More information on twitter @Chances_Edu.
I Will start this challenge on Sunday 3rd May at 2pm and complete it just after 10am on Tuesday 5th May.
