We’ve smashed 30 Days.

We’ve smashed 55.

We’ve smashed 100…

We’ve smashed 150…

We’ve smashed 200.

We smashed the great north run

We’ve ran a 5k every day for 365 days

And

If you thought we was done…

You thought flipping wrong.

We’re digging deeper.

After a short break…

Lets aim for 500 5ks overall!

Early last year, one of the most awesome people I knew chose to exit the game.

For many people, this was tough to process. Cam was the life and soul of the of the party. It’s nearly a year on and we still think of Cam most days.

I don’t think that will ever change.

I decided to run 5km per day in memory of Cam for the foreseeable.

I’m aiming for 30 days.

I’m not really a runner so we will see how the body holds up.

But maybe I’ll keep going until St Patrick’s Day in March.

That takes us up to the anniversary of finding out.

Cam made people believe they could do crazy things.

So I guess that’s why I am running the 5km per day.

For me, some fat lad, it’s crazy to think I could do it. And because of that, that’s why I should.

Im not really a runner, so this will be a struggle.

Cam would probably find the fact I’m doing this for him hilarious.

But maybe going through the struggle will raise some money for Mind - a mental health charity.

Maybe they can help someone else.

Someone else who was feeling like you were.

Maybe running 5km per day can be a symbol.

A symbol for other people to believe they can.

To believe in themselves.

To believe they can run.

To believe they can put one foot in front of the other.

To believe they can carry on.

Maybe.

I hope so.

But even if it’s a maybe…

It’s worth a shot, right?

Even £5 helps, so just give what you can.

Sharing the page would be a massive help too.

If you are struggling, reach out to someone.

Reach out to me if you have to.

Look after yourself.
