Story

Hi! Welcome to my page.

I am attempting to Run/Cycle 100KM (63 miles) a month for a whole year, starting on Mica's 29th birthday ( 17th september 2019 ) through to Mica's 30th birthday ( 17th september 2020 ), and Hopefully ending this journey by climbing Mount Fuji In Japan in September 2020.

All the miles will be completed at a gym, or fell walking on any good weather days. I will be keeping track of my miles and will post weekly updates on my progress.

I am wanting to do something to honour Mica and her family, in the only way I know how. Mica's family helped me in the past through a very hard time of my life; they deserve something back. I feel very fortunate to make it to my 30th year, when unfortunately Mica never had the opportunity.

Mica did however, bless us all with a lovely daughter, Lilly, who has been living with Erbs Palsy.

Erb’s Palsy, also known as Brachial Plexus Paralysis, is a condition
which mainly due to birth trauma which can affect 1 or all of the 5 primary nerves that supply the movement and feeling to an arm. Each injury is individual. The paralysis can be partial or complete; the
damage to each nerve can range from bruising to tearing. Some recover on their own; however, with some cases like Lilly - they require specialist intervention.

Anyone who knows me, knows that this is not going to be easy for me, as I am currently a massive chonk of a woman (haha). This being said - I will complete this challenge, I wont give up and Hopefully i'll be a super model by the end of it.

The best way to support is to donate, or if anyone would like to join in tackling the miles too, then feel free to contact me and arrange.

Lets raise awareness and do this!!
