Dan's Story

I’m currently taking on the ultimate endurance challenge: the Super Half Series, running six half marathons across six incredible European cities to raise vital funds for Heart Research UK.

Heart disease is something deeply personal to me. A close friend suffered a heart attack in his 30s, a stark reminder that heart conditions can strike anyone, at any age. It’s also an issue that has affected my father-in-law, and our family is endlessly grateful for the incredible care and support provided by healthcare professionals during those critical times.

I’m now partway through the series, with four more races to go over the next couple of years. While the endless training and early mornings are hard work, the electric atmosphere at the races and the incredible support from the crowds make every mile worth it.

It’s an honour to push my limits to support such a brilliant cause. Every donation directly funds pioneering research into heart disease, helping save lives, protect families, and improve treatments for the future.
