Me
Hi, I'm Eddie. I'm a Nurse in the RAF from Cheshire and an avid runner in the last year.
I signed up to Tough Mudder Manchester a couple years ago. Sadly, this was postponed so I was offered a Free warm up to the 5K in Lincolnshire and this year, we are confirmed for Tough Mudder Manchester in October.
Fancying another challenge, I also booked myself onto the Manchester Half Marathon which seems to fall on the same week!
With such a feat ahead of me, nothing was going to stop me. I had to think about what would push me further...
After an engagement event in Sussex, I got chatting tothe Chief Exec of Forward Facing. We exchanged details and I've found my reason to push further through these events.
The Cause
Forward Facing is a registered charity that provides creative and fun activities for children and young people with long term or life limiting conditions; including their families and local people who are suffering bereavement or are disadvantaged in other ways.
We make memories, build confidence, and support families facing difficult times.
We do this through Memory Making Days and fun days out for the whole family.
We also hold special events for parents and carers.
