Rachel's 500km to Christmas

Nov 01, 2024 - Dec 20, 2024

Rachel Daly

I will be combining running and cycling to achieve at least 500km from 1st November to just before Christmas to raise money for two charities.

These charities are very important to me and to my husband Steve, who has chosen them as his Captain’s charities at the Nevill Golf Club. They are Taylor Made Dreams and The Pickering Cancer Centre. Both are incredible and are at the centre of support and care in the community.

If you know me, then you know, I love my exercise. However, I am not a fan of anything longer than 30-60 mins (sorry golfers)! So, to make things harder to complete the 350km within 7 weeks, I will be doing a run every day +/- an indoor bike ride for no more than 30 mins each.

A hope the mantra of 'a little bit goes a long way' will prove worthy of this challenge but also as an incentive to you to donate to these charities. If we all contribute just a little bit, it goes a long way - obviously large donations go further!!!!

Thanks so much for your support and I look forward to seeing you all for a celebratory tipple over Christmas at some point.
