Participants: Lovely ladies from the Prestwich Plodders
Great Manchester Run 2018 · 20 May 2018 ·
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Having recently completed a C25K program with the The Prestwich Plodders who are a wonderful community of ladies in Prestwich, Manchester, supporting each other and meeting weekly for runs, I am now soon to start 5 to 10K training for the Manchester 10K. Yikes!! Two years ago I contracted bacterial meningitis, I was in a coma for days and ended up with lots of other issues, including not being able to walk, never mind run, after an excellent recovery and at 56 years old I want to do this because I CAN!
The Prestwich Plodders are raising money as a group for The Christie in Manchester and there isn't many of us who haven't come into contact with Cancer, either directly or indirectly. I lost my Daddy to this terrible disease and have lost other relatives and friends, my cousins Alison and Des, Karen Windsor, all too young. I also have a number of friends who are fighting it. For this reason we would like to raise as much money as we can. If you can donate, any donation is very welcome no matter how small.
Thank you to all my friends and family that have inspired me, if you can then I can too. I feel very proud to be a part of this strong, powerful team of women who have supported me all the way. Please support me xx
