26 in 26 – The Final Year

In 2024, I made a three-year commitment to take on a major endurance challenge each year to raise money for charities that make a real difference across Northern Ireland.

2026 is the final year of that promise and it will be the biggest yet.

This year, I will complete 26 events across 26 consecutive weeks.

From endurance races and long-distance cycling to community events and challenges that will push me physically and mentally, every event forms part of one larger mission.

I won’t be doing it alone. A number of good friends will be stepping up throughout the campaign as part of Team 26, joining different events and helping drive this forward. This isn’t about one person it’s about collective effort.

All funds raised will be split equally between four incredible charities:

• Foyle Hospice

• SARDA IN

• Legenderry Relay for Life

• Cancer Fund for Children

Each of these organisations provides vital support to people and families across our community.

This campaign isn’t about personal glory or chasing times.

It’s about consistency.

It’s about showing up.

It’s about sustained effort for causes that matter.

Over the next six months, I’ll be sharing the journey the training, the setbacks, the wins and the hard days.

If you’d like to support 26 in 26 whether by donating, sharing, sponsoring an event or simply following along it genuinely makes a difference.

Let’s make this final year the most impactful yet.
