This November, I will be joining my fiercely determined and super strong mixed doubles partner to take on HYROX Manchester. This is all in aid of raising money for MacMillan which is a charity that holds a close place to my family.

Why HYROX & what is it?

Having been introduced to HYROX at the gym, I stepped from a coaching role to fully participating in the joys of exercise such as burpee broad jumps. I was inspired by my mixed doubles partner and couldn’t miss the opportunity to work together, motivate each other and celebrate every win that comes along with it.

Who doesn’t want to cover 8km of running divided by 8, with 8 functional training stations?

SkiErg 1km, 152kg Sled push 50m, 102kg Sled pull 50m, Burpee broad jump 80m, Rowing 1km, 2x24kg Farmers Carry 200m, 20kg Lunges 100m, 6kg Wall balls 100 reps.

Why Macmillan?

I'd be so grateful if you could help me reach my £400 pledge and a team target of £800, which would help go a long way for such a hard working charity. £400 can help run the Macmillan Support Line phone service, a service that offers so much!

There are currently 3 million people living with cancer in the UK today. My Dad was one of these people and he has tackled cancer on multiple occasions now and thankfully come out still fighting, and telling naff jokes - we wouldn’t want you any other way. I have friends whose families have faced similar circumstances and we all have different stories, with one common theme: the support of Macmillan is always spoke about so positively.

It's Macmillan's goal to be there for everyone from the moment of diagnosis, but they can't do this without donations from people like you.

Thank you in advance for any donation in support.

Together we can make positive change 🫶
