Aim: I’m running 100 marathons in 100 days across India to raise £1M for climate action. This Crowdfunder will help make the expedition possible.

What is Project Salt Run?

In October 2025, I’ll run 100 marathons in 100 days across India.

I’m retracing a 4,200 km colonial customs line once used to enforce a brutal salt tax a forgotten boundary built to control movement and profit from suffering.

This run isn’t about records. It’s about rewriting a story and proving what’s possible when you show up for people and the planet, step by step.

I only started running in 2024. I’m not a pro athlete. But I believe we need new stories. Stories of courage, hope, and collective action.

And I believe this one can spark something bigger.

With your help, we’ll bring this story to life and use it to raise £1 million for climate action through 1% for the Planet on Givestar. 

EVERY Pound raised on Crowdfunder gets us closer to being able to reach that goal. 

Why We're Crowdfunding

We’re raising money to make this expedition possible.

This is a self-supported, grassroots challenge. No big sponsors (yet). Just a small crew, a powerful mission, and a belief that everyday people can do extraordinary things.

Every pound raised fuels the journey. And if we raise more? We’ll invest it into the film, impact campaign and legacy storytelling.

Where Your Donation Goes

This isn’t a luxury trip. It’s a tough, real, human challenge.
Your support keeps us moving, safe, and able to tell the story so it can reach and inspire thousands more.

Your donation powers:

  • Logistics for 100 marathons in 100 days
  • Safety, nutrition, and support crew
  • Daily storytelling and a feature-length documentary
  • Kit, accommodation, food, and permits
  • Paying fair wages to the people making it happen

This run is just the start. With your help, it becomes a movement.

Our Fundraising Strategy

We’re raising over £250,000 and every pound gets us closer to making this mission happen. 

We've applied for various funding options and are actively seeking corporate partners. 

Here’s how your support builds the journey, stage by stage: 

£70,000 We Hit the Start Line
This covers essential pre-expedition costs: flights, visas, permits, insurance, logistics and payment to the Indian Expedition company to get the team to India and ready to run.

£140,000 – We Keep Moving
Funds all on-the-ground costs: support crew, food, fuel, accommodation, safety, content capture and the daily grind of 100 marathons in 100 days.

£250,000 – We Tell the Full Story
Allows us to produce a 90-minute post-expedition documentary and impact campaign to share the journey with the world  and keep the message moving long after the final step.

Every donation fuels a real, human effort and helps turn this into a legacy of hope, action and climate storytelling.
