The National Autistic Society is here to transform lives, change attitudes and create a society that works for autistic people. There is still so much to do to increase opportunities, reduce social isolation and build a brighter future for autistic people. With your help, we can make it happen.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This time I am raising funds for The National Autistic Society who do incredible work each year supporting the 700,000 autistic people in the UK and their families. Having been diagnosed autistic myself in November 2019 this charity is especially important to me.

As most of you will know I have fundraised for various charities over the last 15 years ( £84,276 to date! ), so I know I need to continue to push the boundaries to warrant further sponsorship. I will be running the London Marathon on 3rd October 2021 and I have decided to make the marathon a little bit more difficult for myself. Starting on September 8th I will run 1 mile, September 9th 2 miles and increase that by 1 mile each consecutive day right up to the day of the London Marathon which will be a total of 351 miles (or 13.5 marathons) in 26 days.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

The running schedule starts on Wednesday 8 September

Week 1 (1 to 5 miles, total distance 15 miles) - 5 days

Week 2 (6 to 12 miles, total distance 63 miles)

Week 3 (13 to 19 miles, total distance 112 miles)

Week 4 (20 to 26.2 miles, total distance 161.2 miles)

Total Challenge Distance 351.2 miles in 26 days

Let me know if you want to run some miles with me on any of the days 1 to 25
