A group of runners decided to add some extra meaning to their January jogs by sending messages of support to Prostate Cancer UK using their route apps.
The cancer charity encouraged people to participate in their Run The Month: Marathon Edition in the first month of 2021, the challenge requiring participants to hit 26.2 miles during January.
A group on Facebook took the challenge one step further by running routes which would spell certain letters on their route apps, organised by Carl Smith from Manchester.
Those letters were then used to spell messages of support such as “Men We Are With You”, “Prostate Cancer UK” and “Run The Month”.
