Story

Hi, my name is Richard and I hate running. 

I said that in March 2017 after I signed up for my first half marathon. I imagined it would be something I would do once, hate it, and then just be happy I did it. But as I finished I realised this was the beginning, and 5 half marathons later Im about to undertake my biggest challenge yet. 

And this time I'm pulling someone else along too... so Hi, my name is Roberta and I hate running.

Richard is running Disney's Dopey challenge, and you have to be a dope to do it, 4 days, 4 races, 48.65 miles. Thursday 5k, Friday 10k, Saturday Half, Sunday Full Marathon.

Roberta is Running the Walt Disney World Half Marathon. Going from an infrequent 5k to Half Marathon in 3 Months is an incredible challenge and she's only yelled at Richard 3 times in training so far.

This is all in memory of my mum, and everyone who continues to fight, be affected by, and lives with the consequences of Cancer every single day.

Last time I said that i wasn't sure how it was going to go, and I was possibly in it for the medal, and maybe some of that is true this time (6 Medals!), but come on this journey with us and we will keep you updated along the way, our goal is Double what I raised in 2017 but we value and love everyone who gives anything you can. It really makes a difference. 

So lets all make some magic, see you on a run.
