Eliot's Mayday Mile

I’m taking on the Mayday Mile challenge to support RNLI volunteers

This May, I’m completing a mile-a-day challenge to help RNLI crews save lives at sea.

During summertime, more people flock to beaches and coastal towns to make the most of everything they have to offer – from glorious sunshine to adventurous watersports. And as temperatures rise, so do calls from people in trouble in the water.

By answering this Mayday call and giving a gift today, you can make a real, lifesaving difference. Your kindness will help give volunteers everything they need to launch to the rescue, and make sure they’re ready to face their busiest season.

Will you sponsor my RNLI Mayday Mile challenge and support the courageous crews?

My Updates

End of the Month!

Friday 31st May
I am very proud to say that through running, indoor skiing and cycling I have achieved 47 Miles this month! And that isn't including the walks I did on recovery days (The last week has been challenging on my joints!) 
A huge thankyou to the contributors, while I was running around, it was the actual donations that made a difference, not me!

Second Week Progress!

Monday 13th May
Thankyou to my wonderful family for supporting this endevour!
I have been keeping it up and my knees are finally adapting to the running, today I did just under 3 miles!

First Week Progress

Tuesday 7th May
Hey , Just wanted to share that I have been keeping up with the challenge! Ive been running mostly, but today I cycled to give my knees a break. I'm having fun doing this, and I am working on improving my running technique so my knees don't take such a pounding!

First Run Today!

Wednesday 1st May
Started my month off with my first run, Its going to be tempting to run further, but i shall be training my body to get used to running every day instead of a couple of times a week!
