Hornsea Third Marathon Β· 2 April 2023
Hello! It's been a while since we have done a run for a charity, so we thought that 2023 would be the year! Some of you may know that we did Doncaster 10k in November 2021 and raised a lovely amount for the MS Society, so thank you to anyone that donated. Realising that this time we may need to up the ante a little, we have gone big! If anyone was wondering, this is all Mel's fault ;) On 2nd April Jodie and Mel, Mark, Stu, Katie - team JaMMSK - take on the Hornsea 1/3rd Marathon, just shy of 9 miles in one run - this will be the longest run Stu has done to date. It's a long way, but some of you are thinking 'it's just one run' right? So the challenge will continue into June when we take on Hull 10k and Leeds 10k on consecutive weekends! (11/6 and 18/6) The thought of that alone is somewhat worrying. The MS Society will always be a cause close to home as Stu's Mum suffered from this terrible disease before she passed away back in 2009. Anything that can be done to help those currently suffering, and aid the fight to find a cure will always be important. Not only that, but as the series of runs concludes in Leeds, we couldn't let that pass without a thought for Leeds Rugby League legend, Rob Burrow. As such, we also hope to raise some funds for the Motor Neuron Disease Association. We realise times are tough for everyone, so anything that can be donated to either cause would be greatly appreciated by us all. If you don't want to pick between the two, you can simply donate a little to each cause via our page. If you want to only pick one, that's also fine. If you can't donate, that's no worry either, we appreciate you reading this (and maybe a little share on the socials if you can!). Thank you all for reading and we we all see you on the start line in April... and June... and later again in June! Fingers crossed we get to the end :)
