We are fighting to make a world where diabetes does no harm

Story

It’s almost 6 years since we completed 10 marathons in 10 days and with Max now in his final stage of school, we wanted to support him and his year group to raise funds for Diabetes UK.

This time an Ultra Marathon, where we aim to cover 100 miles in 24 hours. We hope to attempt this on Thursday 7th March – weather dependent!!

We will not break any records but hope to complete it. We ask for your support once more for our final fling – definitely no more running!! (This is certainly our greatest challenge).

Diabetes affects many friends and family and can be debilitating and frightening. When the body produces insufficient insulin, action must be taken to avoid damage to other organs and hospital admission.

Further research into this disease is required to end the suffering of many.
