Max Wilshaw is fundraising for Vasculitis UK: he is attempting to raise £12k over a year to support and raise awareness for Vasculitis UK.
The challenge started last year on October 1st 2024, and finishes on September 30th 2025.
The story so far …
On September 9th 2023, Mike George Harris was suddenly and tragically taken from his friends and family after enduring years of living with vasculitis. A cheeky bear of a man, Mike was a genuine example of one of those people that no one has a bad thing to say about. His close friend, Max Wilshaw, was one of many that Mike had previously helped in some way, and he was inspired to show what he could endure in an effort to raise money for Vasculitis UK.
In May 2024 Max raised a staggering £4,428 for the charity, after taking part in the Bristol Half Marathon, but this was just the beginning of his ambitions.
Starting from October 1st last year, Max committed himself to competing in four running events with the goal of donating £12k over a twelve month period. Having already completed two of his challenges, the next event on the calendar is the TCS London Marathon on April 27th, when Max will be running ‘virtually’ with a route mapped out across Bristol. Then, on the 10th of May, he’ll be taking part in 10YFAN, the annual Brecon Beacons test of climbing to the top of Pen Y Fan ten times within a twenty-four hour window!
