Walking 3 Marathons In Three Days
My names Isaac, I’m here to tell you about a charity event I am currently doing and if any of you are interested in even donating a small amount of £5! Every penny helps!
So as many of you are aware, this month is Movember, a month all about raising money in the name of men’s mental health. Because of this I wanted to create a challenge for myself to try raise some money for a charity called ‘Andy’s man club’.
The challenge that I have set myself is I am going to try and walk three marathons in three days. This is going to be a tough challenge having 72 hours to walk 78 miles but its all in the name of men’s mental health.
Here is a little bit about Andy’s man club, the charity the money will be going towards.
Andy Roberts was loving and doting father, son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend. He was an all-round top guy, one of the truly nicest people. His love for his daughter was inspirational to see and the way he looked at her and idolised her was a blessing. Sadly, and tragically without any warning Andrew, at 23 years old, was taken away from all his family and friends by suicide. On average one man every 2 hours takes his life in the UK. It is often said a factor is that men do not talk. That is why we were born to break down these stigmas. At ANDYSMANCLUB you do not have to be suicidal or have a mental health problem, we just want to get men talking. They host group meetings all over the UK to promote and get men talking about mental health or anything they are going through.
