A resounding good luck and thank you to serial fundraiser and Duchenne Dad, Lex Ellison who is taking part in the Endure 24 running challenge in Leeds this weekend.
It’s Lex’s first challenge since going into lockdown, and he’s hitting it hard – pulling a a car tyre along the road behind him, attached to a weight-lifter’s belt.
As parents with a child who has additional needs and requires additional support, the tyre represents the daily struggle we all feel and can never truly disconnect. Sometimes the tyre slides without much effort, and other times the weight and friction are almost unbearable. If I can purposely endure huge amounts of pain and stress for this challenge, it will give me mental and psychological armour to deal with stress and trauma in the future.
