My cousin has Duchennes muscular dystrophy and I’ve always wanted to do more help him and all the families affected by this condition. But I lack any creativity so I’ve decided to keep it basic and run. The goal is to run 5km every day of the month and then finish with a 20km run in October 31st. I’ve chosen 20km because globally, 1 in 20,000 children are diagnosed with DMD every year.

I attempted this last year and fell just short due to an ankle injury so I am even more determined to finish this year!
