Running every day for 1,000 days. The thousandth day is 15 November 2023. · 15 November 2023

Weldmar Hospicecare needs to raise more than £27,000 every day to provide specialist care for adults in Dorset with a life limiting illness, and support for their loved ones. Just 19% of our costs are met by the NHS, the rest comes from the generosity of the local community that we serve in Dorset.

Story

I started running every day on 19 February 2021. I have run at lest 5k every day since (except one day, 29 March 2021, on which I only ran 1 mile, but the previous day I had run 50 miles, so I think I deserved a rest!).

This means that on 15 November 2023 I have run every day for 1,000 days. I would like to mark this occasion by raising some money for Weldmar Hospicecare, for whom I will be starting as a Bereavement Support Volunteer soon. Weldmar do an amazing job caring for people with a life-limiting illness at the end of their lives, and supporting their lived ones.
