My story

I'm not what you'd call a natural athlete. In fact, I'm fairly confident my body was designed more for sitting in meetings, drinking coffee and occasionally demolishing a kebab than running any meaningful distance.
Nevertheless, against all medical common sense and my better judgement, I've signed up for the Kettering 5K.
As CEO of Accommodation Concern (AC), I spend a lot of my time encouraging people to push themselves, overcome challenges and step outside their comfort zones. Unfortunately, someone seems to have decided I should practise what I preach.
So, I'll be dragging myself around 5 kilometres, raising awareness and hopefully a few quid for a charity that does genuinely brilliant things for people facing homelessness, debt and hardship.
For some, 5K is a warm-up. For me, it's a significant logistical undertaking, probably requiring coffee, emotional support and a defibrillator on standby.
If you can spare a few pounds to support the cause, I'd be incredibly grateful. If you can't, please at least come and witness what promises to be a spectacular triumph of determination over physical suitability.
Homelessness can jog on. Apparently, so can I.
