Mission 40 2025

I'm taking on 40 miles in March

I'm taking on 40, 80, or 160 miles this March!

Simon wil be doing a combination of cycling and running a minimum of 40 miles in March in memory of our son Hayden. All money raised will go directly to the Thames Valley Air Ambulance. Anyone who knows us, knows what the TVAA mean to us and we would be incredibly grateful for any donations you are able to give.

For Hayden, Forever 5 🩵🌈✨

40 miles matches the average distance that the Thames Valley Air Ambulance helicopter flies to reach an emergency. The challenge is to walk, run, swim, cycle or wheel my way to 40, 80, or 160 miles, while helping Thames Valley Air Ambulance crews be there for people when they need them the most. TVAA are not government or lottery funded, and rely on the generosity of the community, like you, to provide the best critical care at the scene and beyond. Thank you for your support!

200 miles completed in March 🚁

Monday 31st Mar
Today marks the end of Simon Spain #Mission40 challenge to raise vital funds for Thames Valley Air Ambulance in memory of our beautiful boy Hayden 🩵🌈

He set out to complete 160 miles during March, by way of a combination of running and cycling. He has absolutely smashed that target and ends the month having completed 200 miles! 

We are beyond proud of what he has achieved this month, not just physically, but emotionally too. It hasn't been easy but through sheer determination and a little guardian angel cycling along the way, he has completed the challenge.

London

Monday 17th Mar
Another snap from the London Ride. Coffee stop at Baker Street before heading back 🚴‍♂️

Canal ride from Chesham to London

Monday 17th Mar
Riding along the canal, taking in all the sites London has to offer. Great to have people clapping and cheering me along the way 🚴‍♂️

Park Run

Monday 17th Mar
A few park runs under the belt during Mission 40. The toughest one being Church Mead, with the highest elevation! This particular one was an extended Park run, with the warm up being a run from home first 🏃‍♂️

Honey Badger Trail

Monday 17th Mar
An off road trail that Sienna and Hayden helped devise. Ridden every single time in Haydens memory - Simons favorite ride 🚴‍♂️🌈5️⃣

Thank you

Thursday 13th Mar
To everyone who has so very kindly donated or shared the page so far.... THANK YOU 🩵🌈5️⃣✨ Still half a month to go and Simon will continue clocking up miles. He started with Sienna at Blackpark Park Run and he shall finish the challenge with Sienna in the same place ✨

Our Hayden

Saturday 1st Mar
Sadly last year due to a tragic freak accident we lost our 5 year old little boy Hayden. 
The TVAA worked tirelessly to try and save his life. Their efforts have us 3 more days with our little boy and for that we will be eternally grateful.
Hayden absolutely loves his bike. There wasn't a day he wasn't on it. His aim by his 5th birthday was to ride 10 miles! He achieved this alongside his dad, big sister sienna and trust Jack Russell. At the age of 4 years and 10 months old he rode 10.6 miles off road! 
This mission 40 is being carried out by Simon. He will be doing a combination of running and cycling in memory of our beautiful boy. Along the way he will be joined by our daughter Sienna age 8. They will start and finish this challenge together 🩵❤️🌈
