Hello,
I’m Ben… just Ben
I’d Really APpreciate your SUpport
I work, I’ve got three kids, I train early, I get tired, I get injured, I doubt myself, I crack on. And in amongst all of that, I keep choosing big, uncomfortable goals — not to prove I’m special, but to show that most of us have more in the tank than we think.
This site is a diary of my journey to run Badwater 135, the hardest footrace in the world, and a metaphor for my evolution as I train and prepare for that challenge.
135 miles of running, across Death Valley, in the summer and crossing three mountain ranges. I need your support.
PLEASE PARTNER WITH ME ON THIS JOURNEY
Badwater 135 is where this starts. It is a personal challenge with a big fundraising mission: but it will not be done alone.
I’m looking to work with a small number of aligned brands and corporate supporters who value resilience, preparation and pushing into uncomfortable territory. Support might be simple product gifting, preferential access or category partnership, with the option of exclusivity where it makes sense.
In return, partners will be featured across the journey — visible on the website, represented within kit and training updates, included in fundraising emails to supporters and acknowledged in any press opportunities that arise during the programme. Referral links and logos can also be incorporated into campaign communications.
There is also a structured corporate partnership package available, which includes speaking opportunities, content collaboration and deeper engagement around the campaign’s charitable fundraising aims. A summary PDF is available on request.
