Story

I'm taking part in the York Against Cancer 50k challenge!Scientists at the University of York's "Jack Birch Unit" have invited the City of York to get outside and commit to getting fit and healthy. I've decided to support their cause and get involved.I am raising money for York Against Cancer by physically challenging myself to travel a distance of 50k between 1st - 10th March 2021, I can travel however I like, as long as I don't use wheels to go the distance (other than a wheelchair or mobility assistance device).

My plan is to cover the distance over the time-period and will use an App on my phone to measure how far I have walked.  I am doing this in honour of all the family and friends who have either died of this disease or those who are still undergoing treatment.
