Story

Thank you for supporting our fundraising for the Macmillan Cancer Support team.  

Like so many families both of ours have been impacted by Cancer and the devastating effects it has, The Macmillan nurses have helped our families through the dark times that Cancer brings.  They seem to always be there just when you need them, from chasing appointments, giving advice or a shoulder to cry on, they really are amazing. 

This is why Paul and myself have decided to give something back to Macmillan so they can continue there fantastic work and help as many people as possible.  We are running 200 miles in 7 days from Lulworth Cove, Dorset leaving on Sunday 4th April 2021 and arriving back in our home town of Lydd, Kent at midday on Saturday 10th, so that actually gives us 6 and a half days! we are covering an average of 33 miles a day well over the marathon distance.  This challenge will not be easy and will hurt in places, but it will not be half as painful as living with Cancer and that will be our driving force to reach our goal.  So Please please donate what you can to help us reach the target set for such a fantastic charity.  Many thanks Paul & Ben 

 Due to COVID we have now changed the date to 25th September, we have also increased the distance to 227 miles!!
