Mark is running a very long way!

Fundraising for Cancer Research Uk, London 2 Brighton Ultra Challenge, 24th May 2025

Mark is aiming to fundraise £1,500 with a target time of 9 hrs 30 mins.

Hi all! I'm taking a Sponsivity Time Challenge for a spin, and what better way to do it than a 100km trail race! It's 100km from London to Brighton, so promises some hills and mud. It's hard to guess what time I can achieve but I think 9.5 hours is a good start. My biggest challenge will be getting to the start line without injuring myself! I've chosen to raise for Cancer Research UK. Developments in the fight against cancer have been very optimistic over the last few years, and with the illness increasingly converging on my social circle, it is something I am very keen to support. Please contribute what you can to help this great cause, and push me over the finish line in good time!

Mark is raising money using a Time Challenge. This means that as well as offering a flat donation, you can choose to offer more if they beat their target time for the event. We will keep you up to date with their progress and you will have full control over the size of your donation until you lock it in after the event.
