During the pandemic all running events have been cancelled, which impacts greatly on charities due to loss of sponsorship. I like to challenge myself with my running and this has been more difficult with virtual runs on my own. In addition to signing up for the Virtual Cupcake chase 10k in October  to help raise funds for St. Richard’s Hospice, I am undertaking a bigger challenge on the 16th and 17th of September, on my own, where I will be doing a 4x4x48 hour challenge; running 4 miles every 4 hours for a total of 48 hours. This will be both a physical and a mental test and I am hoping that I can raise some money for the charity to make it an even more rewarding effort.
