Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page..
Whilst sitting in Macdonald's on the Albert Dock Liverpool on an autumn Saturday morning with 4 hours to kill waiting for my gymnastic mad daughter Trixie to finish her session, eating a double sausage and egg mac muffin meal I was scrolling thorough the apps on my phone and spotted run-keeper which I'd downloaded months ago cos I fancied a run (but never went), so dressed in combat shorts and converse pumps and freshly eaten sausage and egg (with the hash brown on the muffin!) I thought now is the time to get 10k under my belt! I did it, turned a funny colour and struggled to walk for the next few days but I did it! So from then on every Wednesday I'd run the gauntlet through Toxteth and develop my unique shuffle style of running!
The rock and roll Half marathon has been my goal and now it's nearly here so with just a week and half to go I'm launching this page so there's no backing out!
The cause is one that is very close to all my friends and family's heart after we lost one of our best friends Natalie Heap (38) very suddenly in Feb 2014 to leukaemia. Since then Chris her husband has done amazingly well to care for their 3 children Olivia, Jessica and Mia whilst continuing to work and we all know Natalie will be so proud of the way he and the girls have kept things going.
So I hope you will give generously and help bring an end to leukaemia and lymphoma for good!
