The Christie to Barrow

Donation protected
2026 will mark 10 years since we lost our good friend Luke Willacy from a rare form of liver cancer. Luke and his family received fantastic support from The Christie and we know how vital their care is.

We unfortunately have had other friends and colleagues over the last few years that have received treatment at the Christie as well so we've set ourselves a big challenge to raise so big ££ monies!

We have spent over a decade doing the Keswick to Barrow (40miles) in Cumbria to raise vital funds for The Christie and other cancer charities with our Cool Runnings team raising over £90k in that time!

To mark 10 years since Luke's passing we wanted to go even further and push our unfit, ageing and knackered bodies by doing three ultra marathons in three days! Covering the distance from the Christie in Manchester all the way back to Luke's hometown of Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria.

111 miles in 3 days!!

We are planning this for the August Bank Holiday weekend 2026 and we would love to raise £11,000 for this 111 Mile epic challenge.

We appreciate any donation and thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to us and continues to help so many.
