In support of Healthier Heroes
From the coastline of Spain to the stories that shape us, El Camino Español is an endurance challenge built on resilience, service, and the belief that every mile can carry a message far greater than the run itself.

How you can support
El Camino Español is currently an entirely self-funded project.
We are looking to connect with aligned partners, brands, supporters, and individuals who can help bring the challenge to life, from support vehicles, running gear, nutrition, and recovery, through to media production, logistics, and direct financial backing.
At this stage, every partnership can be bespoke. The goal is to open meaningful conversations with people who believe in the purpose of the project and want to help make it happen.
I started this journey with a simple question: how far can one person go when the purpose is bigger than themselves?
El Camino Español brings together endurance, military experience, logistics, storytelling, and service using the challenge of running 1,000 miles to raise awareness and support for those who need it most.
Together, we’ll carry this story across Spain, one mile at a time, showing that resilience is not just about pushing forward - it’s about remembering why you started.
