Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My aim is to run 1.33 miles everyday, or 485 miles in total, throughout 2026 to raise money for my Dad who sadly passed away in September 2025 and also the Christie Charity who looked after my Dad in his final days. The number 1.33 is not just any number. Every day in England, 33 males die a a day of prostate cancer. The money i raise while doing this will help that number go down, and that’s the whole aim, so that other people don’t have to go through the devastating pain of losing a loved one to prostate cancer. My whole life my Dad urged me to do something about my fitness and i can’t think of a better way to get fit whilst also raising money in his memory. Although 1.33 miles a day doesn’t seem like a huge amount of running, the number is significant to the cause and for those that know me will know that i will definitely be struggling within a few months! My Dad was and always will be the centrepiece of mine and my families life and we will forever miss him dearly. Please, if you can, donate and if you can’t donate, please share to others who may be willing to donate. Any amount of money is greatly appreciated.

Miss you Dad ❤️

Thank you
