About

1000 mile challenge

For years, I have been running but not seriously and not very fast! Then in March 2020 with the lockdown and a hyperactive dog to entertain, I increased my running and found it was my lifeline, my coping strategy to get through these weird and often boring times!!  I founded running calmed me from stress, gave me time to think, at the same time as made me forget the troubling times we were in. I did a 100 mile challenge in March- April and raised over £1000 for Cancer Research UK. Now Rocky and I are going to embark on our biggest challenge- a 1000 miles!! Not sure how long it will take- perhaps a year, perhaps more (I'd love to do it in a year!!) I started on 1st January 2021 so let's see how far I get!!  Please follow and if you can please donate to Cancer Research UK:
