Story

In 2023, FACT (Fighting All Cancers Together) turns 15 - an incredible birthday milestone for an incredible charity. 

So I thought to myself… ‘what can this insignificant Patron who’s limited in endurance but maxed out in enthusiasm do to mark the occasion?’

Step forward the FACT15 Challenge. 

15 endurance events - from marathons to half marathons, 10 miles to 10km races - across 12 months. 

I’ll be running the parks of Manchester, the streets of Edinburgh, coasts of the North East, the hills of Leeds & of course, through my beautiful home city of Newcastle - all with one aim - to raise £15,000 for FACT. 

So I only ask of you one (several) thing(s). 

Please donate what you can. Please share this challenge with everyone you can. Please (if you’re a business) consider sponsoring and supporting in whatever way you can. 

Because while it’s going to be painful, while it’s going to be challenging; physically & mentally, while it’s certainly going to be one of the biggest sporting tests of my life...

...it’ll be nothing compared to what millions go through bravely fighting cancer every single day.

Thank you in advance for all of your support. Every share, every penny, every involvement is massively appreciated. 

FACT15 - bring it on! 
Andy.
