My Story

Hi everyone, so if you know me you'll know all you need to know but if you don't, my name is Mike,  I'm a local man to bolton and work on my market stall on bury market, I used to work in healthcare and did so for 30years.I've got an incredible family,who are supporting me through this challenge. The challenge I've decided to set myself is to run/jog 100miles throughout the month of May to raise money for a local charity which is very close to my heart for various reasons. FortAlice is a charity that helps victims and families of domestic abuse, it's a bolton based charity that provides refuge and support for victims and their families suffering from domestic abuse. For anyone who is in need of assistance from them or is suffering and needs a way to get out of a situation you may be trapped in, this charity could help. Please visit www.fortalice.org.uk

I've been lucky enough to be able to donate various things these past few months but I've wanted to do something more substantial and would love your support however big or small to keep me going through this challenge but to be able to make a difference to so many people who need it. I'm not a runner by nature but I will post daily throughout May so you can all see where I'm up to and that I'm completing the challenge. My target is to run 6.5k a day over 25 days ( giving me 6 days off for the month) Please support me as you are able, you will be helping to make a difference. I can't thank you enough already for taking the time to read about my challenge and any support that you can give me. Thanks Mike x
