Hello! I am taking part in the Trees For Cities Treeathlon on September 15th 2012. At the moment I am seven weeks into my training towards running 5km.

I am passionate about trees and living on the outskirts of London I see every day what a difference they can make to urban areas. Trees produce oxygen and soak up pollution and as a lifelong sufferer of asthma I am especially appreciative of their benefits. But there are so many others too!
