@DuchenneUK Cheers, Paul & Lisa, from Olly & Josh....
#DuchenneDash training is not all sunny days, bluebell fields & cycling down hills - sadly! There have been a few of those, but there's also been cycling in the rain and the cold, uphill slogs on my own and even a very slow motion fall off my bike (embarrassingly) a few weeks ago
However, DMD is still (sadly) very real and supporting Duchenne UK is already making a huge difference. With your help, together we can #EndDuchenne. I'm massively grateful as ever for any donations received justgiving.com/page/dan-cross…
I need to do more training in the last few weeks before the big ride (London to Paris in 24 hours on 17th-18th May). It's all for the amazing @DuchenneUK. I think it's my 9th Dash, including adapted versions during the pandemic, so I've asked lots of times before for sponsorship
@DuchenneUK Well done, Simon from Josh and Olly. You did us proud.
