Run for Andy

By Shane Cowell

My Activity Tracking

214
kms

My target 200 kms

Done

Today I did 213.8 km and plan on doing more at the end of the month. 

180 km bike
30km run
3.8km cross training 

Very sore my arms held out and legs. More to come 

Purpose for this

After the passing of a family member who took me on my very first run — a moment where I pushed myself harder than I ever had — I’ve realised just how much that experience shaped who I am today.

It feels only right to honour that memory by doing something that pushes me again.

This May, I’ll be running, walking, and riding a total of 200km on top of my normal daily steps, all while wearing a weighted vest.

I’ve chosen this challenge because he served in the Territorial Army, and training with a weighted vest is something I already do — so it feels especially fitting.

Across the month, I’ll carry between 6–15kg each session — a personal test of both physical and mental resilience.

This cause means a lot to me, so if you’re able to donate — no matter how big or small — I’d truly appreciate your support.

Cheers
