David Goggins 4x4x48 Challenge
Myself and Ben will be running the David Goggins 4x4x48 challenge this March. The challenge consists of running 4 miles, every 4 hours for 48 hours totalling 48 miles (77km).
Initially we planned to run the challenge purely as a test of our own mental and physical endurance having both read and been motivated by David’s book ‘can’t hurt me’. However having been inspired by other fundraising efforts from people partaking into the challenge last year we have decided to try and raise funds for the charity CALM(campaign against living miserably) which aims to highlight the issue of suicide amongst people in the UK, providing assistance and support to anyone struggling with life, a cause we both feel strongly about. All donations will go directly to the charity to aid in this effort.
Any donations and support will be hugely appreciated, all the runs will be tracked by Strava and posted to show our progress throughout the challenge. Thanks for taking the time to read, hopefully your support will give us an extra push during the tougher parts of the challenge!
Please see below for more about the Charity.

Standing together, united against suicide
We’re the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) and we’re taking a stand against suicide. That means standing against feeling shit, standing up to stereotypes, and standing together to show life is always worth living.
125 lives are lost every week to suicide. And 75% of all UK suicides are male. We exist to change this.
We do it by provoking conversation, running life-saving services, and bringing people together so they reject living miserably, get help when they need it and don’t die by suicide.
