Andrew's 108 Mile Ultra-Marathon for the MNDA

Andrew Richardson is raising money for Motor Neurone Disease Association

Team: 108 miles and the Yorkshire Three Peaks - fundraising for the Motor Neurone Disease Association

108 Mile Ultra Marathon · 11 April 2026

Motor Neurone Disease moves fast. It takes away time, it takes away independence and it has no cure. Every day we support people affected by MND. We fund ground-breaking research. We campaign for better care. We’re here for everyone who needs us. Because with MND, every day matters.

Story

Last year I completed a 100km ultra-marathon around Leeds for the Motor Neurone Disease Association (MNDA), and the support I received fuelled my desire to go further in 2026. On April 11th 2026, I’m taking on a 108-mile ultra-marathon from Horsforth, to the Yorkshire Three Peaks, over all three iconic summits before running back home:

In March last year I ran a 100km "Lap of Leeds" and I wanted to set an even more ambitious challenge to support the Motor Neurone Disease Association (MNDA). Later in the year, my best friend Will’s mum sadly passed away from the condition and seeing the impact of this cruel disease inspired me to take on a challenge that reflects the magnitude of the fight that patients face every day.

This route is more than just a distance challenge as The Yorkshire Three Peaks have always been a special place to me, my dad in particular instilled in me a love for these incredible hills and often talked about walking them himself.

Running from Horsforth (my home town), completing the peaks and running back home will likely be the toughest thing I will ever do and will likely take over 30 hours to complete, and any support that anyone can give would be very much appreciated.

Every mile I cover will be in aid of the MNDA, and your donation will help support those who need it most.
