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.

Day 1 - 1st January 2026

Thursday 1st Jan
First run of the year done. 2.33km done! Felt good to make a start on this. Will keep people posted (for those of you who are keen to know - check out my Strava - https://strava.app.link/343OqsHszZb)


Why I am doing this

Wednesday 31st Dec
For those of you who know me, you will know The journey, my wife and I have been on over the last eight years.

Sadly, we have experienced loss as many families on here have and I have found it difficult to deal with over the years. However, I would like to help raise awareness Of the heartbreak and significant emotional and mental strain losing a child can have and encourage others to do something that will both improve their own mental health but also raise awareness for a significant charity that Support grieving families.

Therefore, I will be running 2 km a day for the entirety of January and probably more in order to raise money. If you can spare any money and give what you can then the charity will benefit greatly from this.

I thank you in advance for anything that you can give and will update regularly via this and Strava with my progress.
