I’m running 2k a day in January for families facing baby loss

I’ve committed to running 2k a day this January for every much-loved baby sadly not here today.

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.

Thank you.

At the finish line

Friday 30th Jan
Well after weeks of complaining about my calves, this red, sweaty photo marks the end of my 62km journey for Sands, and for Alice. In all honesty, I didn't actually believe I could do this so I'm beyond happy to have achieved what I have. Thank you so much for all of the sponsorships, the money raised will mean the world to those who receive the support it will fund

Chilly walk

Friday 9th Jan
I've been feeling pretty ill for the last couple of days with some sort of stomach bug/food poisoning, so really haven't been able to run. Instead, Nathan joined me for a long icy canal walk in the dark this evening to get out and get some activity in. Fingers crossed I'll be back to running soon

New shoes!

Decided to save my joints and invest in some new running shoes ready for run #2 tomorrow!

For Alice

Monday 15th Dec

It might come as a shock to those who know me well that I’m choosing to run—but that’s exactly the point.

This January, I’ll be running 62km in memory of my beautiful niece, Alice, who was born at 25 weeks on 3 November 2025 and sadly passed away just 11 days later. The grief felt by my family is beyond words, so I’m taking on this challenge to channel that pain into something positive, raising money to support families who know this heartbreak all too well.

As someone who has never embraced cardio, every kilometre will be hard-earned—but each step is for Alice, and for others who need support when words just aren't enough.

Thank you to my Sponsors
