Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
After not getting a London marathon place again, I decided on a different challenge.
I will be completing 10 half marathons during the year starting on 9th February in Deal and finishing on 31st October at Hell Down South in Tunbridge Wells (full list of events below). This is a fitting end to the challenge as it is not a standard half marathon. Hell Runner is a 13 mile route with no obstacles, just natural challenges. Bogs, hills, water, mud, mud and more mud.
I decided to use this opportunity to raise awareness of my chosen charity - Mates in Mind. This is quite a new charity (only launched in 2017) that works to open the conversation within the workplace about how we can all help each other to achieve and maintain good mental health and importantly, where we can go to get help if we need it. The charity has a particular focus on the construction industry, but also reaches across transport, logistics and other sectors.
My tour dates are....
Deal 9th Feb, Headcorn 16th Feb, Lydd 8th Mar, Dartford 15th Mar, Ashford 5th Apr, Bewl water 9th May, Whitstable 14th Jun, Hever castle 5th Jul, Maidstone 18th Oct, Hell Runner 31st Oct
I hope through my Marathon Mission, I can not only raise awareness, but some money too, to support this charity that supports so many.
