My wonderful Grandad had a massive stroke back in June just weeks after surgery for lung cancer. 

He now has Aphasia and can’t talk to me as we use to. I miss him so much as I haven’t been able to see him much over lockdown. He’s been through a lot and he’s never going to be the same but he’s still strong and I’m proud of him. 

I am going to run 20 miles over 5 days from Friday 4th December from my house to my Grandads house everyday and back. I can see him through the window and blow him kisses. I’m only eight and it’s quite far and I am doing this as I love my grandad so much. I want to help others in similar situations. 

Please donate if you can - Thank you!!

I will post run updates and photos ❤️
