On June 16th 2024 I am attempting to run the full length of the Leeds and Liverpool canal, there and back. I will start in Leeds run all the way along the canal to Liverpool spin round and come back on myself. That is a total distance of 406km and I am aiming to compete this in just 7 days, so I will be averaging around 58km a day.

I have decided to raise money for the British Heart Foundation (BHF) a charity that is personal to me as both my granddad and grandma passed away due to heart conditions. It is also ten years since my dad discovered he had heart complications and had to undergo life saving surgery. After his triple heart bypass my Dad is doing amazingly and loving life.

The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to support from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. £24 could pay for two hours of research by an early career scientist, but every pound helps so please give what you can to help me hit my target. Thanks!
