Hi everyone,

Most of you that know me will know that I love running and other sports.... but that I also hate running on a treadmill! 

I had hoped to be doing lots of outdoor running right now in preparation for a summer endurance event.

But the current pandemic situation has necessitated an unprecedented lockdown around the world. The ship I’m working on currently is no different in its response and we’re locked down indefinitely until things improve. 

So the treadmill has been forced on me and I need your help for some motivation!

I want to put my time pounding the belt to good use by raising money for a great cause. 

The current Coronavirus pandemic has shown us the importance of scientific research and support for patients. I want to make sure this carries on with respect to cancer research, and isn’t forgotten about. 

I didn’t have a place in the London Marathon but it was due to be held on the 26th April (before it was postponed), so this is my attempt at making sure an alternative sort of marathon takes place on that day instead.

Any donations, no matter how small, will be greatly appreciated and go towards cancer research and support, which affects such a large proportion of us these days.

Thanks for your support!

Perry
