"My challenge is to complete a 6000km run across 16 countries to raise funds for children's causes. This challenge will take me all the way from my home town in England to my place of birth in Iran. I’ll be setting out on this challenge in July 2022 and shall be running a marathon on my active days and 15km on my rest days. If all goes well, I should complete my run by December 2022.
On my route, I shall be passing through 16 countries: beginning in England, then France, Belgium, Luxemburg, Germany, Austria, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Moldova, Ukraine, Russia, Georgia, Armenia and finally Iran.
My goal is to team up with one children’s charity in every country in my route and to gain support amongst their citizens and raise funds for each one of these local children charities."
