Story

Thank you for being here on my JustGiving Page. 

On 24th June 2023, alongside Ruth Harris, I will be attempting to cycle the Coast to Coast in a Day. This route is achieved by several hundred people each year, but generally over 4-5 days, not 1 day! 

To achieve this iconic 150 mile route (with over 4500m of ascent) will be a HUGE ask of myself both physically and mentally, but it will be nowhere near the pain and suffering that thousands of women and their loved ones go through each year in their battle with breast cancer…Including a very dear friend of mine in 2022.

The route will see us start on the West Coast at Seascale then taking on Hardknott Pass and Wrynose Pass in the Lakedistrict  before making our way over to the Yorkshire Dales and ultimately arriving in Whitby, hopefully before the Fish and Chip shop closes !!!

You can follow my training on the Strava link. I promise to give it my all, but can’t promise to finish…

I am  taking on a Cycle for Breast Cancer UK to raise vital funds for breast cancer prevention. Every penny you donate will be put to good use straight away to help prevent breast cancer. With over 30% of breast cancer cases that can be prevented, you are helping more people to reduce their risk of ever getting breast cancer. Sadly, not all breast cancer cases are preventable, women and men will get breast cancer through no fault of their own. With your generous support, Breast Cancer UK can help people reduce their risk now and stop preventable cases of breast cancer in future generations, so fewer people experience the devastating impact of a diagnosis. We really cant thank you enough!
