Hello all. I want to raise some money for a good cause that needs support during the pandemic. I've decided to run a half marathon on my driveway to raise cash for Merseyside Domestic Violence Services (MDVS). Since lockdown began there's been a sharp rise in domestic abuse calls in the UK, the work MDVS are doing seems more important than ever right now.

For those who are interested my driveway measures 45m. Therefore I'll have to run the loop of the driveway 467 times (yes, it'll be boring) I hope my housemates will help me by cheering me on/throwing water at me to keep me hydrated. Photos, video and if we can figure it out a live stream may follow.

Merseyside Domestic Violence Services is an organisation working with women, children, young people and families whose lives have been affected in some way by the issues related to domestic violence.

If you can spare any money please donate. Thanks so much.
