100 Miles in October Challenge

I’m running 100 Miles in October with Dogs Trust!

🐾 I’m running 100 Miles in October for Dogs Trust! 🐾

This October, I’ve decided that trying to improve my fitness clearly wasn’t enough, so I’m also going to run 100 miles for Dogs Trust.

Dogs Trust Cardiff is where we got our sweet boy Popeye. He came to them as a stray and is now very firmly in charge of our house, sofa and most of our free time.


I genuinely can’t recommend Dogs Trust Cardiff highly enough. The care they give the dogs is amazing, but they’re also brilliant at matching them with the right forever homes and continuing to support you afterwards.


Given how well they matched Popeye with us, I’m inclined to trust their judgement. Although they perhaps underestimated just how quickly we’d become completely ridiculous about him.

Dogs Trust gives stray and abandoned dogs a second chance and, last year, cared for 11,707 dogs across the UK and Ireland, rehomed 9,914 and helped provide nearly one million meals through Fareshare foodbanks.

I’m already trying to get fitter and run more, so I may as well make the suffering useful.

100 miles. 31 days. What could possibly go wrong.

If you can spare anything towards it, I’d really appreciate it. It’ll help Dogs Trust keep doing what they did for Popeye — looking after dogs properly, finding them the right people and supporting them once they get there.

It may also stop me quietly abandoning the whole idea somewhere around mile 47.

Thank you 🐾
