Story

I am raising money in memory of my brother Oli, who sadly passed away on the 05th December 2022, from sudden arrhythmic death syndrome (SADS) at the age of 31. Oli loved life, his family and adventures. I am participating in the Beyond the Ultimate Ice Ultra to remember Oli and hopeful raise some money for Cardiac Risk in the Young, who have been wonderful in helping us navigate Oli’s passing.

Between 20th - 25th February 2024, I will be participating in the Ice Ultra Marathon, a 230km self-sufficient race across the arctic circle. Day time temperatures can down as low as -40 degrees. I will be running across snowfields, Arctic tundra and frozen lakes.

Please find a link to the documentary about the race: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7H2AsHSa13U

Every week in the UK at least 12 apparently fit and healthy young people die of undiagnosed cardiac conditions.

With your donation, CRY can reduce the frequency of young sudden cardiac death (YSCD) by working with cardiologists and family doctors to establish good practice and appropriate screening facilities to promote and protect the cardiac health of our young.

By supporting CRY you will help save young lives from these potentially fatal cardiac conditions.
