Story
Hi, my name is Elijah and I'm nine years old.
I have been so inspired by Captain Tom Moore and his amazing efforts to support our NHS workers, I've decided to follow his example.
I'll be running 111 miles round my local common over the next 30 days, to raise money and do my bit to help support the NHS / NHS 111.
It's a big challenge because running such a long way in such a short time is hard - I don't normally run as far so often.
Please can you sponsor me and help me play my part in helping the NHS?
Thanks, Elijah Storey

5 years agoHello all. Apologies for the delay in posting this. As promised, here are a few overall highlights of Elijah's 'journey' including a few stills and videos of his amazing last day. Thanks again to EVERYBODY for their sponsorship, encouragement and messages of support throughout (and after!) his challenge 😊

5 years agoDAY 30, the last leg... HE DID IT!!!! My phone didn't work for videos yesterday 🤦🏽♀️ but I will update the page later with footage from my husband's phone. A lot of stop-starting so the distance shown is actually LESS than what he ran yesterday (because sometimes we forgot to start the tracker again!) but he only needed to go 0.85 miles to hit target anyway. Saw our lovely local MP, Dr Rosena Allin-Khan on his last lap, after she had offered personal support this week, so he had an incredible finish to his journey! THANK YOU ALL!! X

5 years agoDay 29... EEEEK!! I am so incredibly proud of how Elijah has approached this challenge, and this week in particular. It has been quite a tough week - we're both physically tired most days and emotionally tired on others but he is SUCH a determined boy. He said the leg massages he's had for the last couple of days have really helped 😊 He ran 3.05 miles today so he only needs to do another 0.8 miles to have met his goal! I can't believe it'll all be finished tomorrow!
