In June 2023, I couldn’t ride a bike and was undergoing treatment for Chronic Prostatitis.
It was therefore an absolute honour and privilege to cycle from London – Southend (96Km) on 21st July 2024 and raise awareness and funds for Chronic Prostatitis and Prostate Cancer.
From the start at beautiful West Ham Park in Newham, East London, we were soon out of town and onto quieter, country roads. Essex was a surprise with its picturesque villages and quiet lanes, winding through gently rolling countryside.
With plenty of stops along the way, it was wonderful to reach the finish in the pretty gardens of Priory Park, Southend after 7 hours 40 minutes with music, refreshments, beer tent and a well-earned medal!
It was also superb to meet the Prost8 UK charity team at the finish line.
For any sufferers of Chronic Prostatitis my message is clear. You can recover and get your life back.
Never, ever give up 👊
