Wednesday 29th May 2024

When you drive 107 miles to run your 100th mile in May … no words for my love for that beautifully crazy little sister of mine!
Done - and two days early!
Thank you to everyone for the boundless belief, encouragement and support - and such generosity in donating. Beyond grateful … 💜

Monday 27th May 2024

An incredibly generous £100 donation from my Aunt and Uncle through the Charities Aid Foundation that has gone directly to GOSH and isn't included within the total on this page ... 
💜


Saturday 4th May

9.5km run today, taking my total number of miles run to 11 and another self-donation to mark 10 miles! Inclusive of a 6am run past Great Ormond Street before the NEU/UKLA conference today! Claire x

Monday 29th April

My GOSH charity top arrived, along with my '100 miles in May' tracker, I've run 5k wearing it after school! All in a day's work! Claire x

Sunday 28th April

Five miles run today to make up for the distinct lack of running involved glitter bowling yesterday! I am still going to run the full 100 miles in May, starting from whatever the total number of miles I've run at the end of April is - I've just been tracking it this week to check the accuracy connecting my Fitbit to this page. And I'll continue to donate £5 for every 5 miles I run. Claire x

Wednesday 24th April

I was later leaving school than I anticipated so this evening's run wasn't as long as expected but I have done my first self-donation of £5 for 5 miles. I am going to donate £1 per mile run in the lead-up to and during May. I have shared my fundraising page to hold myself accountable, rather than for donations, and I'm beyond grateful that people have felt they'd like to donate. Claire x

Tuesday 23rd April

The 'SUCH FUN!' towel is back out ... the irony! My inner Miranda running 100 miles in May! Another couple of miles of 'revving up' done this evening - and I've managed to connect my Fitbit to this page so the frustration of forgetting to log miles is a thing of the past! Claire x

Monday 22nd April

'When motivation fails, discipline backs you up.' I know that motivation starts the race and discipline ultimately crosses the finish line. I know I will never ALWAYS arrive home after school feeling motivated to go for a run - and that when motivation fails, discipline will back me up. I was NOT motivated to run 5k round the promenade deck in the middle of the North Sea instead of enjoying an all-you-can-eat breakfast but discipline made me follow through when I couldn't rely on motivation. If I can be disciplined enough to run 5k round the promenade deck in the middle of the North Sea instead of enjoying an all-you-can-eat breakfast, I can be disciplined enough to run 5k each evening to raise money for GOSH! 💜 Off home from school I go to 'rev up' another 5k ahead of May! Claire x

Sunday 21st April

I'm still think Cambridge would probably cringe if they knew I was sporting their running gear - definitely NOT a runner by Cambridge sporting standards! They have my sister to thank for that one! Looking forward to my GOSH challenge top arriving - that's the logo that matters! Will need to be running an average of 3.3 miles/5.5km a day ... started 'revving up' this weekend with a couple of 5km runs and aiming to maintain that this week. I've also dedicated some of today to working through a great goal-setting framework (thank you, Jacqui!) to help me try to nail this one! Thank you, Rebecca and Fairlie, for the kind donations!

I’m running 100 miles in May for GOSH Charity! 

I’m challenging myself to run 100 miles in May to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSH Charity).

Every day brings new challenges at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, around 750 seriously ill children and young people are seen at GOSH from all over the UK for life-changing treatment and care. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs. 

And with every mile I run, I’ll be helping GOSH Charity give seriously ill children the chance of a better future.

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support, so please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.
