Still jogging along as part of the 66 mile Bobby Moore bowel cancer challenge organised by Cancer Research UK and so far have covered 26.7 miles. Another 40 miles to go during July to complete the challenge. My pace over the distance is reasonably consistent (2.5 miles in 37 minutes) which is OK for me considering my knee joint issues. The hot weather is more of a challenge than the distance but OK if you keep in the shade of the trees around Fleet Pond.

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. I’m taking on the Run 66 Miles Challenge for the Bobby Moore Fund to help raise money for Cancer Research UK. Please show your support and help fund life-saving bowel cancer research by donating to my page.

Every so often I decide to take part in some fund raising for cancer research and this year I am taking part in an effort to raise funds for bowel cancer research. This will involve running 61 miles during July which is not that far but I will have to manage the effects on my knees due to osteoarthritis so it may be a mix of jogging and fast walking. So if you would like to sponsor me you use the link below to the page set up by Cancer Research UK. For those of you who are not into football, Bobby Moore was the England captain when we won the World Cup in 1966 when I was a football mad 9 year old.
