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, including my lovely nephew Alf and his siblings.
It adds up to 62km across the month, which is somehow one and a half marathons. I know. I don’t know how this happened either. I’ve only run once in my life. It was a half marathon and I finished it swearing I would never run again. So this challenge is definitely outside my comfort zone, but I’m doing it because the cause matters so much.
Sands is an amazing charity that supports bereaved parents after the loss of a baby. 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
If I’m able to raise enough, I would also love to donate to Petals in Bristol. They offer specialist counselling for parents who have lost babies, and the support they give is invaluable. Its unacceptable that this kind of care isn’t available to every mother and father who needs it.
Thank you for reading, donating, sharing or just cheering me on. Every step is for Alf, for our family, and for all the families who need Sands and Petals. Anything you are able to donate means so much.
Thank you.
