Story

This is the final marathon of the 40:40:40 fundraiser - Raising £40K during my 40s for the 40 year milestone that Emily never got to see. The challenge has been to complete a marathon on every continent to raise money for Coppafeel!

This is one of the two breast cancer charities that my cousin, Emily was raising money for before she died in 2019, aged 37.

She had raised £40K in ONE NIGHT to be split between this charity and Breast Cancer Now. It has taken me significantly longer and I have made far more of a meal of it!

On July 26th, Travelling Fit host The Outback Marathon 2025 and this will be the last chance that I get to run to raise for these two. We have raised over the target of £20K for each.

ANY donations now are in excess of the target so in some ways, the most generous. Thank you so much for taking the time to read and THANK YOU so much for your donation.

Here's to Emily - let's go Walkabout xx
