Rutland Water Run

03/10/24 - Set off to do a minimum of 16KM, felt very good on the 7KM out towards Oakham, got to just short of 15KM and decided to carry on and reach 18KM. 25% of the event distance done in 90 mins at a comfortable pace, now to keep up the long distance and gradually increase it. 

17/9/24

Steady 8km recovery run around Stamford, Borderville to Burghley House and back through town. Very much needed after a full day competing in the station CrossFit comp yesterday. 

Training update

Just over 13km run this evening, longest run in a while. 4 weeks until I attempt a 12-15 mile run at Rutland Water. 

Support my D-Day Challenge

In honour of our forefathers as well as current servicemen who have bravely fought to protect our way of life, I will be taking on the D-Day Challenge to raise vital funds for life-changing mental health treatment for veterans.

The D-Day 44 Challenge commemorates the 1944 Allied invasion of occupied France. I will be heading to Normandy, to race across its picturesque beaches, finishing at the historic Pegasus Bridge on the anniversary of D-Day, 6 June 2025.

Combat Stress is the UK's leading charity for veterans' mental health. For over a century, they've helped former servicemen and women deal with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Today, they provide support to veterans from every service and every conflict.

I’m taking on D-Day Challenge to help take vital strides towards ensuring veterans can get the support they need.

Thank you so much for your support.
