Gareth's 29 day runstreak challenge

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Eager to have another running challenge before the end of the year I am about to embark on a 29 day runstreak. (Relax a runstreak does not involve me taking my clothes off! It’s just running on consecutive days!)
Inspired by the idea of a consecutive running challenge over a long period as opposed to training for a long one off running event such as a marathon I decided that a runstreak would be a great idea and a great challenge to finish off the year with. I very much liked the idea of a 29 day running challenge to mark the end of my 29th year before my 30th birthday and provide a challenge to fund raise and raise awareness.
The inspiration for the challenge and reason for my choice of charity comes from the loss of my Father in Law almost 3 years ago. With the third anniversary of his death coming up shortly this charity becomes all the more relevant at this time of year. When I did a quick bit of Internet research and discovered that November is Pancreatic Cancer awareness month a big bright light bulb went off in my mind as all the strands of my idea started to come together.
So here we have it a 29 day runstreak challenge raising money and awareness for
Pancreatic Cancer with the special memory of Dan Regan in
mind.
I will be covering my runstreak challenge on my blog which you can access here:
