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

This October, I'm challenging myself to run 100 miles for Dogs Trust. Every mile I complete will help raise vital funds for dogs in need, giving them the care, support, and second chance they deserve.

The aim of Dogs Trust is to give stray and abandoned dogs a second chance at a brighter future with responsible, caring new owners.

Last year, they cared for 11,707 dogs across the UK and Ireland, rehomed 9,914 dogs, and helped deliver nearly one million meals to dogs in need through Fareshare foodbanks.

Your support helps them continue this vital work, especially as the cost of living crisis adds increased pressures for dog owners. The work of Dogs Trust is only possible with donations like yours. If you’re able to make a small contribution, I know they’d be incredibly grateful – and so would the dogs!

Thank you for helping me reach my goal 🐾

day 26!!! Challenge achieved 100 miles run

This morning before I ran on the ship I saw a rainbow!! It was Merry I believe.🌈🐾🏃. So happy to have reached 100 miles at sea,now to time to rest🥳🌴🌊

Day 25 on a very windy Atlantic sea

Lovely sea air but very very windy

Day 24 sailing to the caribbean

Very choppy run ..didn't even get on the running deck and had to complete the run on the tread mill

Day 21(missed last nights run)

Night lights

Day 19 canal side burritos anyone ?

Who needs a high street takeaway when you can get it canal side?

Day 18 Sunday run - 6 miles

A slow run where my legs felt like lead weights today. However I stopped to tie my lace and the sunset again was awesome.I love dusk runs in autumn.

Saturday Sunset 3 miles after work

This sunset was beautiful..I stopped and thought how lucky am I to have strong legs to keep me running every day. Health is something I never take for granted..having friends and family who are ill I am very fortunate. Merry had strong little legs like me and had a healthy active life 🌈🐾

Day 16 sunny morning day off run

Sunny morning run down the canal.different to last nights pissing rain.5.3 miles of enjoyable running. On the way home I bumped into buster(one of Merry's old mates).13 year old jack Russell.was great to see him.🐾

Half way through the challenge

Rainy night run.Note to self wear head lights from now on..nearly came a cropper on an uneven pavement.

Day 13 plodding along nicely

Here a boring Strava photo which runners often feel the need to share with the world.🥱😅. Beautiful dusk run along the canal I think I saw a couple of bats darting about.

Day 12 - 4 miles meh Monday🏃

I didn't feel like going but i think why I am doing it and push through.🐾🏃. I remind myself it's good to relax my mind when I run too.

Lucy 14 year old rescue Day 11

Got chatting to this dog (well the owner) who asked for directions. 5.6 miles - takes me over the half way mark.🙏

Day 10 - 5 miles Tea time run

10 days of consistent running. For MERRY.🌈🐾

Day 9 - 4 miles feeling good

I was going to have a rest day but decided to take my gear to work and run from there.so headed up the canal then down to the lake,what a beautiful sight seeing the signets as the sun shon Not a fast run again but then that's not what this is about..it's consistancy.🐾❤️

Day 8/31 3 slow miles

Legs felt heavy tonight but I got out for a very slow 3 miles in the rain.🐾 Merry used to run fast in the rain when she was younger.🌈❤️ Was thinking about her during the run.

Day 7 /31 days - 4 mies

Had to take a parcel to a corner shop so ran along the river..so many knats around tonight after a rain shower..flying straight into my face.😌

5k after work run day 6

A little stop here for a wild wee🤣.Did not realize there was a train coming behind that hedge!.it was slightly elevated so anyone staring out of the window at that point would have an eye full..

Day 5 recovery run

So grateful to not be waking up feeling rough,or achey which can happen after long runs.
So did a little recovery run.
Donations still rolling in.🙏
Saw a beautiful rescue dog  called Sheldon,will get a photo next time.

Day 4 11 miles in the bag today.

I was blown away by the kindness of people's donations this Sunday morning which inspired me to get a good chunky long run done.i feel so grateful to be strong,fit and healthy enough to take on the challenge.
Thank you to everyone.

Run day 3 Early morning miles

Some more miles in the bag before work for the last 3 days..5k + every morning..many people will know me for not being a morning person.🤣..for the dogs it's seems I am.🐾
