I’m running 50k in May for families facing baby loss

I'm running 50k in May 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.

200K. One Month. One Cause. Stay Hard.

Monday 4th May

This month I wanted to challenge myself with a running goal all in aid of an amazing cause trying to raise a little money for a less known charity, which is SANDS. They save babies lives and support bereaved families.

I’m not just doing the “Run 50K in May” challenge… I’m pushing it further and personalising it. I’ll be running 50K every single week—and to top it all off, finishing with a full marathon at the end of the month.

That’s over 200K in total.

It’s going to be tough, but that’s the point. 

If you’re able to support, donate, or even just share this, it would mean a lot. Every bit of encouragement will help to keep me going strong. 

Now it's time to get to work!
