My story
On 17 June, I will be taking part in the Huntington 10k run on behalf of the Lavender Hill Mob Theatre Company, who are an ‘inclusive’ organisation which means that everyone is welcome from age 5, no matter what capability, disability or background – no-one is turned away. My aim is to raise much needed funds for The Lavender Hill Mob Theatre Company, a group which my daughter attends.
They work as a team, utilising the strengths and weaknesses of their members to create a positive effect. The members get so much from this organisation and they all come alive when they perform, it is an absolute pleasure to witness. For me personally, this run means a great deal. Just two and a half years ago I faced up to my own mortality when I was told to ‘Diet or Die’ at just 47 years of age. I weighed in at over 21 stones, had dangerously high blood pressure, my asthma was in free fall and I couldn’t even walk to the top of a flight of stairs, unless I stopped and caught my breath. Today, aged almost 50 and ten stones lighter, I am running the Huntingdon 10k course, thanks to Slimming World’s weight loss plan and regular exercise. I have never run 10k at an event with other runners before, have never run on surfaces other than asphalt and, as I believe an event should to be worthy of the sponsorship, this will certainly be a challenge for me! Please sponsor me if you are able to, thank you

Thank you all so much for supporting me. I ended up with £203 and managed to complete the 10k course in a new personal best time of 1 hour, 5 minutes and 24 seconds! Fabulous feeling to know I have done it! Wooo
Thank you, thank you and thank you again to all those who have sponsored me, you are amazing! Nearly time to run now, just three more days to go! I have practically reached the tantalising total of £200 with just a couple of people still to approach... can I do it?!
Now covered almost all the folk I know! Have raised to date £137 of the £150 target! That means just £13 short!
Sponsors are coming in a gradual trickle. Thanks so much to those who have donated so far, I REALLY appreciate it guys x Just two weeks left and only a few more folk to approach. fingers crossed.
