Story

This page is a collective fundraiser for everyone running the Odd  Day Challenge

November. Usually a limbo month where you count the lack of daylight hours and the lack of change at another pub. Not this year.

The Odd Day Challenge invites you to run. Starting from the 1st November, match the date with the number of KMs. 1st = 1km, 3 = 3km, 5 = 5km. You know the drill.

We'll use the term 'completing' loosely. Some runners will get to the end of a 225km month & others won't. However far, speedy or plodding along, we'll share the same motivation and focus this November. Chatting whilst we go and raising money for CALM.

Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) is leading a movement against suicide. Every week 125 people in the UK take their own lives. And 75% of all UK suicides are male. CALM exists to change this by offering life saving services, provoking conversation and bringing people together to reject living miserably.From advice on our site, through to free, confidential chats with our helpline staff, online or on the phone, we’re here for whoever needs us, every day. No matter what. £8 is enough to fund one potentially life-saving call.
