Story

Would you run with me in November? Sure you would!

What it's all about

Click the CONTINUE READING - for all the details on how to join me and get yourself on the 100 AWESOME PEOPLE board.

In November I am taking part in the Robin Cancer Trust BIG BALLSY event and my goal is to run with 100 people in the month of November. Either IN PERSON or VIRTUALLY.

I was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2021, had an orchidectomy (posh term for having one of my balls removed) and chemotherapy too. I am now super passionate about talking about my ball(s) and making sure we all know about checking ourselves.

..makes a HUGE difference

Why joining me on a run or donating makes a HUGE difference

Each time I complete a run with someone, either in person, or a virtual run if you are round the world and can't physically be with me, I will post to social media. That post will be seen by hundreds, maybe THOUSANDS of people, and that creates awareness.

With awareness comes the thought to check ourselves for the signs of cancer. That means your run or your donation could very possibly be saving lives.

One of my recent Instagram reels got over 250,000 views - now that's awareness in action!

How you can get involved.

I will post to social every run and every donations - the more posts the more awareness.

How to join me for a run - In person or Virtually.

Contact me at: runforandysballs@gmail.com

Simple...

1. If you can join me personally then message me and we'll get that in the diary

3. Virtually is amazing too, tell me when you want to run, run, walk, crawl, hobble and I will get out around the same time and do some miles virtually with you. Then send me a picture of you celebrating the run. We can have a virtual HIGH 5 too!

4. You'll get on the 100 AWESOME PEOPLE board too! Spaces are limited so let's get to it.

And together we are making a MASSIVE difference to mens health - so please join me.

My TARGET

To run in person or virtually with 100 people over the month.

So please SHARE this page so others can take part too.

And you'll secure a place on the 100 AWESOME PEOPLE board :-)

DONATE

And if you are not feeling like a run then I am very happy if you'd like to throw a £1 or two in the pot here and support the cancer work.

Thank you :-)
