Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Note: Total distance I’ve ran and total money I’ve raised shows incorrectly on this page due to changing from another giving site.

Please help support me raise much needed funds for the RAF Association (RAFA)

I am attempting to run at least 10km every day of 2021, 2022 and 2023. That’s 3 years, (950 days), 10950km (6804 miles) in aid of the Royal Air Force Association (RAFA) Yes that’s rights - no days off, no rest days and no making the distance up in a following run!!!

That’s equivalent to running from London to Tokyo, Japan or from Liverpool to London and back 16 times.

When I started I was 41 years old, overweight and definitely not a natural runner. This has been, and continues to be a monumental physical and mental challenge. Now I’m into my third year, my legs, feet and especially knees are really feeling the strain of all those km.

RAFAs dedicated helpline receives nearly 40,000 enquiries during an average year. As an RAF Chief Technician (Aircraft Engineer), in my 25-year career I witnessed the support given by RAFA to the RAF Family, no matter whether you were currently serving of a veteran (regular or reservist), their spouses, partners, dependent children or family members. You never know, it maybe you that needs that help in the future.
