Fun Runs for the British Heart Foundation
You may remember in late last year us talking about the very inspiring twin brothers, Jonathan and David Stretton-Downes, that have partnered with the British Heart Foundation to raise £100,000 in the space of a year.
The campaign, titled SIX TIMES OPEN, began after Jonathan discovered that he would be going under the knife for his sixth heart related surgery in 2017.
Throughout 2017 they have conducted numerous events and fundraising activities, with many friends and partners, to challenge and inspire in the fight for every heartbeat!
On Saturday 30th September, in support of World Heart Day, the brothers are taking part in a series of 5K fun runs in popular locations over the UK.
The runs will be taking place at 6 well-known locations across the UK, which are below;
If you would like to sign up and take part, just click on the location you would like to be a part of and you will be taken to the dedicated Facebook page.
We look forward to hearing all about it and seeing the pictures – good luck to all you runners out there!

2 Home Runs and 35 months TSW
It’s hard to believe that it’s already September! Summer goes by fast when you spend it traveling from one baseball tournament to another, a family reunion, and two weddings–in 4 different states. Thankfully, we’ve been able to do it all, and Brian has weathered the heat and humidity of summer like a champ.
Brian’s team, the Virginia Breeze Elite, brought home the Cal Ripkin championship trophy and came in the top 8 of 104 teams at the week-long Cooperstown tournament in NY. The stay in the barracks and uniforms washed by the staff challenged his skin, but he at least came out no worse than he went in: 0/5 to 2+/5 ss (scratch scale) and minimal shedding.
Also, he hit his first and 2nd home runs ever that week, contributing 2 to the team’s 44. He batted .611 in 6 pool play games–a fitting end to his “little field” career and a testament to how far he’s come in his TSW journey. Thank you, Jesus!
“But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead…you should stand firm in the LORD, dear friends!” Philippians 3:13, 4:1
