2025 Charities - ChemoHero & Macmillan
Over £10,000 raised to date
Cancer can be a very vulnerable and lonely time, when I came through cancer in 2021 I made a commitment to support others, and would do so through my love of running.
I set myself a target to raise £10,000 for cancer and mental health charities. To date I have raised over £10,300 on the events I design and take on, you can find those on the Completed Events page. I am determined now to double that original target.
On each of this years ultra's I will be running with the names of those who have navigated the cancer journey, all names printed and proudly displayed on my running backpack. Those in remission, receiving treatment and those we remember.
I have done this for the last couple of years, the names give me strength and they mean so much to so many.
running with the names of those touched by cancer
It's more than just a run
We are stronger together. On all my 2025 Ultra's I will be carrying on my backpack the names of those whose lives have been touched by cancer, those in remission, receiving treatment and those we remember.
I've carried hundreds of names over the last couple of years on ultra's like the London2Brighton 100K, and I often meet those whose name I am carrying or their family and friends.
You can add a name by clicking on the button below and completing the form. I would be honoured to carry any name you put forward.
During the run I draw strength from the names I am carrying and during the latter stages when the legs are tired I will put my hand on the list and honour my promise to every name to get them to the finish line.
