I’m helping Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation raise funds to find a cure for all childhood cancers – you can too! Please support my efforts!

Ten years ago my Mum lost her courageous battle with cancer and I want to mark this anniversary with a fundraising event, Mum would have been 70 this year. My idea is to complete 70+ miles of ‘competitive’ running during the month of October. This will include the Chicago Marathon on the first weekend, Indianapolis Monumental marathon the last weekend, a local half marathon and 10k on weekends in between to bring my total miles to 71.7.

Training started in June and to date 380 training miles have been run, September will see 170 more miles before completing my 71.7 race mile challenge in October.

During September I will be logging all my training miles to Alex’s Million Mile challenge

550 training miles, two full marathons, one half (mini) marathon and one 10k - all for one good cause, please help.
