As many of you might know, I very sadly lost my lovely Mum last July to Bowel Cancer. My mum was a a Super-Mum and was one of the fittest people I knew. She would regularly show me up in the gym, visiting at least 4 times a week right into her 50's. If I have a body like her's at 60....! She was my bestest friend in the whole wide world and I'm running this marathon for her & I know she'll be running alongside me for the full 26 miles. The last two years has showed me that we must make the most of every single day we have got on this planet, so what better way for me to see New York for the first time!! I want to make a small difference to other bowel cancer patients and their families so DIG DEEP people!!!! Thanks everybody!! Beth xxxxxx Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
