Story

*Challenge update*

I’m due to start a new job in March 2025, my dream career I couldn’t turn down the opportunity. Unfortunately this means that I can’t have the time off to do the 11 marathons in 11 days 🥹 I’ve had to go back to the drawing board.

The new challenge is simple, I will be attempting to set a new world record for the fastest marathon (male) wearing sliders 😎 my charity, money goal and dedication hasn’t changed. Let’s go get it 🙌🙌🙌

Why? my mother who has dementia was told recently that she might have blood cancer. Unfortunately due to involuntary movements her scan came back inconclusive so we don't know if she has cancer.

Cancer is a horrible disease tearing apart families from their love ones, and THIS is my way of saying F U CANCER!

My world record attempt has just been approved so let the training begin 🏃‍♂️

Be sure to follow this page for all my training updates and to follow my story!

Thank you Cool runnings!
