Project Run My Distance – Newport Marathon 2026
We’re a group of mates from Andy’s Man Club Chepstow, and in April 2026, we’re lacing up for the Newport Marathon—not just to test our legs, but to honour something bigger. “Project Run My Distance” is more than a challenge; it’s a shared commitment to raise funds and awareness for an organisation that’s changing lives across the UK.
It all started with Chris—one of our own—who signed up to run the marathon solo. His courage and commitment lit a fire in the rest of us. Inspired by his example, we decided to join him, each in our own way. Some of us will take on the full marathon, others the half, and a few will run the 10K. It’s not about how far we go—it’s about showing up, together. Each of us is running our own distance, in our own way, united by a common goal: to support Andy’s Man Club and the men it helps every single week.
Andy’s Man Club has helped each of us in different ways—offering space, strength, and solidarity when we needed it most. Now, we’re running side by side to give back. Every mile we cover is a tribute to the power of brotherhood, vulnerability, and showing up for one another. We’re not elite athletes—we’re everyday blokes with a shared mission: to help others find hope, connection, and a reason to keep going.
Your support means the world. Whether it’s a donation, a cheer from the sidelines, or simply sharing our story, you’re helping us carry this message further. Let’s run this distance together.
