Leigh & Mari's fundraiser for Clatterbridge Cancer Charity
Leigh Calvert is raising money for Clatterbridge Cancer Charity
In memory of Paul Calvert
Story
Hi everyone,
Mari and I have decided to run the “Liverpool Tunnel 10k” this April in memory of my late Father Paul Calvert, and to raise funds for Clatterbridge Cancer Charity.
Having fallen 0.2km short of completing ‘Couch to 5k’ back in 2021, when Mari asked if we should sign up to running the Liverpool 10k back in December 2024, my immediate reaction was ‘no chance’. We were enjoying a quiet night, having a couple of drinks, and it was at this point that the wine was doing most of the talking. Before I knew it, it was too late, and we were signed up.
Right now, we’ve managed to surpass our previous efforts (both breaking the 5k barrier), but we’ve still got a long way to go before we tackle the tunnel in 10 weeks time. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will not only support an amazing charity but also give us the extra motivation we desperately need to see this challenge through to the finish line.
Thanks for reading and supporting us on this journey.
Much love,
Leigh & Mari 🏃♂️🏃♀️✨
