. 💙 HYROX Manchester for Macmillan Cancer Support 💙

This year, I’m taking on HYROX Manchester — my first-ever fitness competition — and I’m doing it to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support.

Cancer is something that has touched far too many of us. Many of my close and distant family members, friends, neighbours, and even customers have had to fight this battle. Some are still fighting. Because of this, choosing to support Macmillan feels deeply personal to me.

In the past, I’ve raised funds by shaving my hair. This time, I wanted to challenge myself in a different way — physically, mentally, and emotionally — by stepping far outside my comfort zone.

As a weight management specialist pharmacist, I constantly talk about the importance of strength training, functional movement, and maintaining muscle mass — not just for weight loss, but for long-term health, mobility, and resilience. By taking part in HYROX, I want to lead by example and show that it’s never too late to build strength, protect muscle, and improve functional fitness.

I hope my journey inspires others to embrace movement, prevent muscle loss, and start building strength for life.

If you’re able to donate, no matter how small, every contribution will help Macmillan continue their incredible work supporting people affected by cancer when they need it most.

Thank you for your support, encouragement, and generosity 💙

Thank you!
