Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.


Hi I'm Neil from Chesterfield, Derbyshire. 

My close circle of friends have been challenging me recently to get fitter and lose a bit of weight by doing some press ups. I tried and quickly found that I am terrible at them, so I thought how can I do something initially for me to gain some fitness and also raise money for a great cause alongside that. 

With all the restrictions we currently have in place, I will be completing my run without leaving the immediate vacinity of my house. We have a path that is 30 metres long from pavement to shed and i've worked out to complete 66 miles I will have to run up and down this path 1170 times. I'm starting on Saturday 19th April and hope to be finished by Thursday 30th April

My Brother and my Step son are both suffering with mental health issues and I wanted to do something for them. 

I will be doing video updates via twitter (@neilvparkinson) 

I'm hoping to raise £1000, so please give whatever you can 

Thank you 

Neil
