<p>Running is a real challenge for me in time, commitment and energy, and so is working as a single parent to two gorgeous girls. However I know there are people, who's lives are worse off than mine, so I would like to run for Hammer Out Brain Tumour charity and raise as much money as I can to help those people.</p> <p>Personally I would like to make my girls proud and prove to myself that I can committ and dedicate myself to these challenges and raise a decent amount of money too! If I can complete these particular races over the course of the next year, it will be a 'win win' situation for me and the charity and all those patients, families and carers that will benefit from the funds raised. I will begin to believe again, that nothing ventured, nothing gained...this I already know but its not always easy to practise what you preach.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
