Andrew and Ellie’s 12 Million Steps Including a Double Marathon Challenge

12,000,000 steps!! Yep that’s right. Over the course of a year, through walking and running we will achieve over 12 million steps including 2 marathons…🏃🏼‍♂️🏃‍♀️😳 ⬇️

Andrew and Ellie are taking on this outlandish challenge to help support Compton Care.


Why 12,000,000 you might ask. £12 Million is the amount it costs per year to maintain the outstanding service Compton Care provides for people with incurable conditions.

The challenge will include various walking and running events from 10ks, Half Marathons, a virtual London Marathon in 2022 and the father and daughter team will finish together on The Mall for the London Marathon on April 23rd, 2023.

This will be a huge accomplishment for Ellie and myself considering our humble beginnings from the couch during lockdown 2020. We will be tracking our  steps on a smart “Fitbit” device and the long runs will be logged on Strava which links to this page below.

“We know times are hard but all we ask in return for a year of training and running 🏃‍♀️ 🏃🏼‍♂️is that you could possibly donate in any way possible ….maybe when you are buying a coffee or a round at the pub, donate a drink to us ♥️ ”

Thanks 🙏 Andrew and Ellie
