Story

October 1st marks one year from the start of my life as a runner. To mark the occasion I've taken on the challenge of the Limestone Way Ultra half in the Peak District. A 17 mile run with 1588 foot of ascent, which I'm aiming to complete in around 3 hours.
It would be great if in doing this I could help others in Nottingham and elsewhere, benefit from running.
The Running Charity believes that running is as good for your mind as it is for your body. Running builds resilience and self-esteem, and we use this to improve the lives of 16-25 year-olds who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Homelessness can happen at any time and to anyone. And when it happens to a young person it can affect them for the rest of their life. We use running to improve fitness and instil a goal-setting mentality that are key tools in helping these vulnerable young people to build healthy, sustainable futures.
