On the 30th November 2025, my families world changed forever when my dad, James McLeod Snr, died by suicide aged just 52.

We couldn't save my dad, but throughout 2026 we want to do everything we can to help potentially save someone else's.

That's why I'm running an average of 52 miles every week, for all 52 weeks of 2026.

Every penny raised will support the If U Care Share Foundation, a North East based charity working to prevent suicide and to support families affected by it.

This isn't about running. It's about turning the most painful thing that's ever happened to us into something that might stop another family experiencing the same!

Before my dad died, we never imagined we'd have to learn how to live without him. We can't change what happened to us — but we can make sure something meaningful comes from his name and his story.

If you can spare anything at all, please donate. And if you can't, sharing this page could be just as powerful.

Through completing this challenge, I want to prove that there IS ALWAYS A WAY and that suicide is never the answer!
