My story

Update: Well I did the 10K run today; I made it round in one piece and ran the whole way.  I'm waiting for my official time to be published on the Lincoln 10K website but I know that I have run it quicker than I have in training.  A huge, massive THANK YOU to everyone who has sponsored me - my target originally started at £100 but I have had to raise it 4 fold since.  It's all going to a good cause & this page will stay open until 3/7/11 for donations.  I may have to sign up to run another 10K!

 

Bex

 

This started as a bit of a joke a few years ago when I challenged my husband that I could run the Lincoln 10K quicker than him, even though I was smoking 20 a day.  

 

I reached 40 years of age, re-evaluated my life and I gave up smoking on 29th June 2010.  Then tragedy struck my good friend Jo just under a year ago when she lost her partner, Henry, in a motorbike accident just 10 weeks before their first child was born.  I decided to run the Lincoln 10K to both raise money for the local Air Ambulance charity, which is a favourite amongst motorbike enthusiasts, and to celebrate the fact that I am now successfully smoke-free after 27 years!  

 

So please dig deep and donate now, and don't forget to Gift Aid it!

 

Many thanks

 

Becky
