**DATE CHANGE** 20th - 25th of September!!
I have decided (naively perhaps) to run from Soho, London to The Suspension Bridge, Bristol from 20th-25th of September 2021. It's 157 miles meaning I'll be covering a marathon a day for 6 days!
As some of you will already know, last year I lost my gorgeous, funny, life and soul of everyone's party, little Brother Freddie. Since he died I have wanted to do something epic, something challenging, and something Freddie would have been stupidly proud of. So, here I am, running from the place I spent the most time with Freddie over the last couple of years to the place we grew up. I'll be running to raise money for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) who have been doing an amazing job in the fight to prevent suicide, especially in young people and men. They provide a support service for people who feel vulnerable and are struggling with their mental health, they also provide support for families who have survived and are surviving bereavement through Suicide. What they are doing is fantastic and I would love to try and raise £5000 to support their mission.
I would LOOOOVE for as many fellow mad people to join me along the way, whether it's for 5km, 10km, half marathon, or full-day, whatever! I'm thinking Forest Gump style. I'll end up at Clifton Suspension Bridge overlooking Fred's rock and will hopefully have a big old celebration, probably with some hideous blisters. My training officially starts in January and I'll be keeping you all updated with some videos, pictures, and general run updates across Social Media and on Youtube.
