Story

Hello everyone. What the heck is a 'Run the date challenge'?!

For the whole of June, I'll run the amount of kilometres equivalent to the date - so 1km on the 1st June, 2km on the 2nd June, and so on until 30km on 30th June. You get the gist.

I will likely be sleeping (or sobbing) by the 30th June! But I'm hoping to push on through and rack up 465 kilometres of running in a bid to raise money for the Unite Foundation; which provides year round rent-free student accommodation to estranged young people and care leavers.

Please donate to this fantastic cause and help make a University education and experience possible for people who couldn't otherwise afford it.

I'll be updating this page with photos and stories of my June running adventures which will hopefully provide some entertainment for those who have sponsored me. 😅 Thank you
