My Story

At the start of 2014 and after having had my 3rd child (not me personally of course!!) I had my 35th birthday; it was on this day that I realised that I was quickly becoming the mirror image of a doughnut (jam filled!) and that something had to be done. I have since dropped my weight from a rather portly 14st 3lbs to a more manageable 12st 8lbs (as of 27th Mar).

As part of my weight loss programme I think its important that I push myself more and more and it stands to reason that an event such as the British Gas Treks Britain is an ideal opportunity to do this. It offers the opportunity to raise money for a very worthy cause and from a personal point of view I have never run a distance anywhere near this.

Ultimately I want to go further and further this year and this offers me the first step.
