We raise funds for Oxford Samaritans to provide confidential emotional support

Story

My goal for 2024 is to complete the London Classics – the London Marathon, the RideLondon 100, and the Swim Serpentine.

On 21 April 2024, I'll run the London Marathon (26.2 miles). I’ve not run a full marathon yet, and even having swum the English Channel solo, training for this run is proving to be the toughest physical challenge of my life so far.

On 26 May 2024, I'll cycle the RideLondon 100 via Essex (100 miles), starting and finishing in Central London. With all the marathon training, I've not been able to spend much time in the saddle, so I'm not expecting this to be easy.

Finally, I'll complete the London Classics by swimming the Swim Serpentine (2 miles) in Hyde Park, London. I'll be back in my element, so looking forward to this one!

Samaritans provides support to anyone in emotional distress, struggling to cope, or at risk of suicide. Oxford Samaritans is run entirely by a team of volunteers, depending entirely on donations to support its work.

Please support me and donate to help fund Samaritans. Money donated via JustGiving goes directly to the charity.

About the charity

Oxford Samaritans is available 24 hours a day to provide confidential emotional support to anyone who may be experiencing feelings of distress or despair; including those that may lead to suicide. Fundraising and donations help to keep us open, providing vital help to those who need us. Thank you
