Update (1st July 2025):
1st 100km done in one day 5th June 2025! - lots of blisters to show for it
The balance of my committed 200km for June also done (30th June was a 26.5km run day)
But... and this is a big BUT we are / I am way off the target of raising £56,000 to support Dougie Mac by raising enough money to pay for just 1 DAY of running this amazing charity- They support our City and its surrounding areas with care that money can't buy - when people and families need the care, often at the most challenging time of their lives.
SO I WILL RUN 100KM PER MONTH UNTIL WE HIT THE TARGET!!!
You can take part- visit www.100k4aday.uk to see our running total (like the pun?), and how you and your friends can be part of it.

Thank you so very much for sponsoring me!
I am taking on a huge personal challenge: running 100km in just one day on 5th June, all around Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle-under-Lyme (And then another 100km throughout June - 200km total)
I'm doing it to raise vital funds for Dougie Mac and to celebrate 100 years since Stoke-on-Trent received its city status – and I'd love you to be part of it too.
We're turning this into a Community Charity Challenge, open to:
Workplaces, Gyms, Colleges, Schools, Universities, Running Clubs, and Groups of Friends - anyone and everyone!.
Here’s the challenge if you are up for it:
Form a team or go solo, do something (anything) to raise sponsorship during the month of June 2025.
Run, walk, jog, cycle, swim, hop, bake a cake, you could even do a sponsored silence!!...wherever and whenever suits you
We’re aiming to raise as much as possible to help Dougiwe Mac cover the £56,000 that it costs them to support those that need their help, each and every day.
Every single £ raised is a step in the right direction to help provide vital care and support to local people and families across our city and beyond.
Thank you for supporting my efforts and the charity that supports us and our families when we need them the most.
