Rio’s Runners

Run 2k a Day in February 2026

We're running 2k a day in February for families facing baby loss

This challenge is in memory of Charley and Cain’s beautiful baby, who was taken far too soon. There are no words that can truly capture the heartbreak of losing a child, but there is love, and there is remembrance.

We’re running 2k a day to honour their baby’s life, to stand beside Charley and Cain, and to support SANDS in the vital work they do for families facing the devastation of baby loss.

Every step we take is for the babies who should still be here, for the parents learning to live with an unbearable absence, and for a future where no family has to feel so alone in their grief.

Thank you for supporting us, for remembering, and for helping turn love into something that can make a difference.
