Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This year I will be taking part in my first ever Marathon; well actually it's my first ever race altogether! (Wish me luck!) Since being in the crowds last year; the atmosphere of it all and watching the runners (specially my dad) motivated me into putting my name down myself. Having been accepted I have been training hard, and putting in 100% to get to that 26mile goal!!

   Any sponsor money will be very much appreciated and hope you can dig deep as this is a very deserving cause...

 

Thank you all so much! x

 

* 28th March- 4weeks today and it will all be over! I have had my fair share of struggles during training, if its not been stitch its been my feet, and 5weeks before the big day I hurt my foot AGAIN! but I am not giving up... still determined and no matter what I will be crossing that finish line on the 25th April. So please, please could you give me anything, all sponsors are very much appriciated :) thank you *

**7th April- Not long now, the big day is getting ever more closer...and I cannot wait!! So excited, training is finally coming together and I can see that it is all paying off. 2weeks off work at the moment and everyday I am trying to get my miles up! The other day I did 11miles, today I am aiming for 13miles (half marathon!)**
