Story

It's that time of year again—time to dust off the Santa suit! But this December, I’m taking on a much bigger challenge than the usual Christmas Day 10K.

I’ll be running the entire 163 miles of the Saxon Shore Way dressed as Santa! That’s the equivalent of 12 half marathons over the next 25 days.

I’m doing this to support the Alzheimer’s Society, a cause very close to my heart. I’ve seen firsthand the devastating impact of this disease—first with my Nan, and now with my Mum, whose decade-long battle has led to her living in a nursing home and no longer being able to communicate verbally.

This will be my final Santa run, so I want to go out on a high! Any donations to support this amazing charity would be greatly appreciated.
