Mission Accomplished!

Starting the year at 86 marathons (and longer), I decided this year I wanted to reach the 100 mark and raise some money for The Running Charity in the process.

I crossed the finish line of marathon #100 on September 14th at The Lap in the Lake District

I’ve been supporting them for several years and have seen the amazing impact they have on young people’s lives.

The Running Charity believes that running is as good for your mind as it is for your body. Running builds resilience and self-esteem, and we use this to improve the lives of 16-25 year-olds who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Homelessness can happen at any time and to anyone. And when it happens to a young person it can affect them for the rest of their life. We use running to improve fitness and instil a goal-setting mentality that are key tools in helping these vulnerable young people to build healthy, sustainable futures.
