Story

Well I did it!! 

I ran and completed my first marathon - I cannot tell you how proud I am and in particular to have run for such a great charity which is close to my heart.  There were a few emotional moments I can tell you - my brother died 6 years ago this week so to be able to do something so positive was great for me personally, I thought about this on the way around and in the tougher moments thought of him and also how strong and healthy I am and how lucky I am.  Bowel cancer need not be a killer, particularly in someone so young so to bring awareness to this has been fantastic.

Thank you once again to those who have sponsored me - keep it coming!

I am off now to soak my feet and have some wine!
