437 Lives saved

Taking on the Reindeer Run challenge for RNLI lifesavers

RNLI supporters around the country will be donning their antlers and strapping up their hooves to run 24 miles – all to help keep RNLI volunteers safe this winter.

Freezing seas, numbing winds and sub-zero temperatures – would you fancy launching into that aboard a lifeboat? RNLI crews will be doing just that, battling the elements this winter to continue their mission to save every one.

Reindeer Runners will be raising money so they have everything they need to answer the call for help. Because no matter how harsh the winter weather might be, lifeboat crews will always launch to the rescue. I’d be so grateful if you could sponsor me.

My Updates

Reindeer Runs +#6

Saturday 6th Dec
A few more runs under my belt. The worst was yesterday. Weather warnings, sideways harsh rain and wind...but I'm determined to keep going and try and raise as much £ as possible. 

Reindeer Run #3

Wednesday 3rd Dec
A bit of a rush to get out and back tonight plus I had tech issues of which I think were due to my new reindeer antler 'dealy-boppers', but it's done. 

RNLI Reindeer Run #2

Tuesday 2nd Dec
Still a few more days to go but at least it's not raining today. Enjoying getting out there even if it's just a mile a day. Keep 'em coming. 

Reindeer Run #1

Monday 1st Dec
1st run complete. In the dark, wet & cold. Will hopefully get to grips with tech & post video updates as I go. Reindeer antlers ordered. Thanks for all your support. Dx
