My target 31 mi

I’m jogging 31 miles in May in memory of Harry and every much loved baby not here today.

I’ve committed to jogging 31 miles in May for our baby boy Harry and all the much loved babies sadly not here today.

In 2012 I had a missed miscarriage Molar pregnancy , in 2019 we had a missed miscarriage at 12 weeks and then In 2021 we lost our little boy at 21 weeks.  Many families endure this heartbreak and charities like Sands are there to support and play a huge part in helping to navigate this heartbreak and grief.  

Along with my lovely friends who have agreed to join me in raising money and awareness, we are running 31 miles for Sands. Sands ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve when facing the toughest of times. They campaign for change, provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals, and support research so that fewer babies die and so that less families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. 

Anything you are able to donate means so much, to me Chris and Martha.  Doing things like this help to keep Harry’s memory alive and in doing so help more families out there. 

Thank you.  💛

Another 6K!

Wednesday 14th May
Today we ran 6K together and this always helps me so much running with Sash. 
I had my knee strap on which helped so much! We have 19K to go. 

Some runs in the bag!!

Thursday 8th May
Myself and Sashy started the challenge with a long one of 6K counting in Kilometres is easier for us so it works out at 50K in total!  
Sasha is such a good runner and I definitely struggle a lot but she kept me going. 
We then on the 5th May ran 5K on the treadmill at the gym! 
7th May I ran 3.5K and Sasha ran a great 8K in one go! 
And today I ran 5K across the fields. So we have well and truly began x 
Thank you to everyone who has donated so far xxx

Sasha is joining me!!

Saturday 3rd May
My sister in Law Sasha is joining me on this page and she too will be running the 31 miles (50K) in May. 
Today we ran our first 6K! So it has officially begun!! Not sure how my legs are going to feel tomorrow x

For my Harry 💛

Monday 14th Apr
So, it was either a spin challenge again (this may still happen) or something else and I decided on this. Also roped a few friends to sign up too!!! 
Louise, Steph, Sash and Frankie!!!  Girls we’ve got this!! 
I intend and hope to run the full 31, not all in one go obviously hahaha but whether the girls run walk or dance?? We will get this done! 

We all have our personal stories with baby loss whether that’s our own loss or those we love having gone through this we all have a reason to be wanting to raise money for this great cause. 
If you’re here and donated thank you and if you’re hear to just be nosey and see how we are getting on throughout May then well I’ve made you aware of it so either way it’s worked! 

Now to train a little and get my running trainers on and my knee strap!!! 
And I promise to keep you all updated on how we are getting on!!
