Hudson’s Big Ten

I am fundraising for FightMND!

Hi

My name is Hudson, I’m 11 years old. I was inspired to fundraise for MND after writing a biography for school about the inspirational Neale Daniher. He faces major health challenges but is still out there raising awareness and vital funds for the cause. I would like to raise funds too so this is my pledge:-

1- I will run from Shorncliffe Pier to Decker Park and back again to complete 10kms

2- After my big run, I’ll join the big freeze challenge by hopping in an ice bath for 10minutes

3- I won’t talk for 10 hours to honour those living with MND who experience loss of their speech.


The average life expectancy of someone diagnosed with MND is just 27 months. My great Grandmother Marnie died 10months after she began getting sick. I want to give people with MND a brighter future and longer life. May we hope to see a cure in my lifetime. 


Thank you so much for your support!

Best wishes,

Hudson

Got the merch ready!

Monday 18th Aug
My Mums amazing friend Lisa made some unique shirts for us runners! I love the design!

Practise run done and dusted

Saturday 16th Aug
Despite some challenges, I’ve managed to keep up the runs and did the whole 10km today! I’m a bit faster than my old Mum but kept stopping to check on her. I told her I needed to support her, since she’s my biggest supporter 🩵 I finished the distance in just under 1hr

Brrrrr

Freezing ice dunk on an already cold blustery day

The icey dunk

Sunday 3rd Aug
Today I tried practising a long ice dunk to prepare for my Big 10 Challenge. I felt panicked initially but then settled down into the icey temperature. I lasted 14 mins and felt proud. It did take a long time to warm up afterwards! 

Thank you to my Sponsors

Super proud of you Hudson. Your dedication and strength to raise awareness for motor neuron disease is truly inspiring. This is such a powerful way to raise awareness and show support and you should be proud of the difference you are making. You’ve got this. Every step counts- although I think the 10 hours without speaking will be super challenging 🙃💕

Love your choice of charity Hudson. Such a cruel disease. Fingers crossed that it's not windy at Sandgate on the day you do your 10kms and ice bath. Keep spreading the awareness.
