*To any of you that wish to follow my running pains and progress, I share these, and many random thoughts, on twitter @meamandamealing *

Hello.

Thanks so much for taking the time to read this and I hope I can make it worth your while!

As you may know, I was diagnosed with breast cancer in Aug 2002. My girlfriend, Helen Edwards, was diagnosed a few weeks earlier, she bravely battled the disease for eight years. Sadly her funeral was held 19th May 2010.

In memory of Helen's tenacity, strength and courage I will be taking on Breast Cancer Care fundraising challenges, and there are plenty of them.

I am about to attempt my third, yes, third London marathon!!! And this from the girl that has only ever run for a bus.

Breast Cancer Care were, and are still, there for me. With this we can ensure it is there for anyone who needs it, whenever they need it. 

I am very proud to be their ambassador.

 

Much love
