Story

On the morning of Sunday 13th May at the stroke of Midnight I will embark on an 8 hour run through the Europe's Toughest Mudder obstacle course.
This will involve completing the 5 mile course as many times as possible in 8 hours. My aim is to complete 30 miles over the muddy, obstacle ridden terrain, which of course will require a whole lot of training!

The course subjects participants to electrocution, icy waters, tear gas and a whole heap of physical challenges! All this over night through until the dawn of a brisk spring morning.

Below are 2 links to give you an idea of what the event entails!

I’m running in support of Sarcoma UK, the only cancer charity in the UK
focused on all types of sarcoma. Sarcoma is a cancer of the bone and
soft tissue. It is one of the hardest to diagnose, and difficult to
treat. We can help change this. Sarcoma makes up only 1% of all cancer
cases in the UK, and as a result, receives far less funding than other
research areas. It is a deserving charity, much in need of additional
funds.

By donating to my page, you will fund vital research projects looking for better treatments.

Your donation will also raise awareness of the symptoms of sarcoma to
help patients get an early diagnosis, and ensure everyone has access to
specialist advice.

The main reason I support this charity is for the amazing support they have given to a brave, strong and inspirational friend while fighting the condition over a number of years.

Sadly, Amy passed away on 19/03/15.

Amy has previously suggested I give my support to this charity and she explained how much support they had given to her and her family.

Below is a link to Sarcoma UK, where you can find more information about sarcoma and the work the charity does.

Please do donate as much as you can for this cause which is close to me. Any donation is greatly appreciated!

I have previously completed 2 tough mudder events and have raised a good amount of money for the cause!

With this event, I'm setting my target at £1000.
