Running the Length of the UK – 950+ Miles for Mental Health & Cancer Research

950+ miles. 30–40 miles a day. One mission: to inspire others and make a difference.

I’m taking on one of the biggest challenges of my life: running the entire length of the United Kingdom, covering more than 950 miles at a target of 30–40 miles per day.

This will be a self-supported challenge, with the possibility of a videographer joining me to capture the journey, the highs, the lows and everything in between.

But this challenge is about so much more than running.

I’m raising money for Mental Health Matters and Cancer Research, two causes that deserve our support, awareness and action.

Mental health is something I understand the importance of, and I want to help break down barriers, encourage conversations and remind people that they are not alone. I hope my journey inspires others to take that first step, challenge themselves and get outside their comfort zone.

I’ve previously taken on challenges including 26 marathons in 26 weeks and running from Bristol to Paris. As an ex-military paratrooper, I’ve learned a lot about discipline, resilience and pushing through difficult moments. Now, I want to use those experiences to make a positive difference to others.

Running over 950 miles will test me physically and mentally. There will be tough days, setbacks and moments when I have to dig deep. But that’s part of the journey, and it’s exactly why I’m doing it.

I want to show people that we’re capable of more than we sometimes believe, that stepping outside our comfort zone can change our lives, and that even when things get difficult, we can keep moving forward.

Please support the journey. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will help support these important causes. Share the page, follow my progress and join me on this adventure.

Most importantly, take something from the challenge for yourself. Set a goal, take that first step and go after it.

Tough times never last. Set a goal and run towards it.

Thank you for being part of the journey. Let’s make every mile count.
