Story

In the 6 years since we lost our best bud Tom we’ve been raising money and awareness for mental health and suicide prevention charities in his memory mostly by running half marathons.

  

This year we up the odds, after many failed attempts in the London Marathon ballot, on the 24th September we are set for our biggest challenge yet as we fly out to Berlin to take part in the BMW Berlin Marathon 2023.

  

At full marathon distance (42.2km / 26.2 miles) it will be the longest distance any of us will have ever run. Whilst we’d love to say that we are prepared, despite putting in some miles it will no doubt be a huge challenge for us all.

  

Zac & Jago are running on behalf of the charity Mind, whilst through a separate fundraiser, Toby & Myles are running for Rethink Mental Illness, both incredible mental health charities.

  

Support us in raising awareness of the frankly epidemic mental health crisis we face today, our wonderful charities and the brilliant work that they do whilst helping us to celebrate our beautiful mate Tom.

  

Please read, react, share and donate if you can, it is all so greatly appreciated.

  

We will see you (we hope) at the finish line!

  

Zac, Jago, Toby & Myles
