Dear All,
Those of you who saw my last (and only other) running attempt of 10k a few years back will know quite how hard this is going to be for me... The real reason I'm doing it is to raise money for Maytree, the fantastic charity for people in suicidal crisis where I work.
I've probably gone on and on about Maytree to you so I won't go in depth into how a sanctuary for the suicidal works, but do check it out at www.maytree.org.uk to find out more or call me.
In a nut shell, this quote from a former guest at Maytree - one of many I could have chosen - gives a flavour of why Maytree is such a special place that deserves every penny you are able to give:
“If I hadn’t have been to Maytree I’d have committed suicide, without a question of a doubt. In a time of total, utter despair and blackness it gave me hope. And now five years later, I’m here.”
Please do give as much as you can to support Maytree - you really will be saving lives. And you'll also be spurring me on to push through the pain, blisters, aches, pain, blisters, pain!!!
Huge, huge thanks for your support,
Kat xx
