Run 2k a Day in February 2026

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

I’ve committed to running 2k a day this February 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.

DAY 28 - I FUCKING DID IT!!!

I did it! And my fastest run yet! I can't believe I have run everyday in February, thank you so much to everyone who has donated, kept me motivated and even run with me 😊
The last couple of days have been hard, and I am ready for a break😂 I am hoping to carry on running, just maybe not every day. I have enjoied myself, even when the weather has been against me.
Todays run was after work, blue skies, sun and moon! Spring is getting closer.

💜💜💜

HALF WAY!

Saturday 14th Feb
Half way now! Today's run was a icy evening run.

Had a little company!

Saturday 7th Feb
My little dude joined me running this morning 😊

Day 5 and it started to snow!

Thursday 5th Feb
Lets hope the weather gets better! Its was a hard run today, as I am like Bambi on ice. However, I took it slower and didn't go out of my comfort zone with speed. Fingers crossed the weather gets better, I would like to see more than 3ft in front of me on these runs 😂
