***Update - Northampton 5k completed in 28:49 mins. Bedford 10k completed in 1:16:17 (without stopping!) Our next challenge is the Bedford 5k Twilight on 18th October! http://www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/emma13WHU ***

I'll be running my 3rd 5k Race for Life this June alongside my friends Zoe White, Sam Rose and Rachael Durrant, plus 46 other amazing women who will form the rest our team - Have a Heart's Team Natalie! The following week, Zoe and I will be running the Bedford 10k too, to help raise even more for such a worthy cause. This is a distance we've never attempted before - eeek!

I lost my lovely Nan to cancer in May 2009 and watched my amazing friend Sam stick two fingers up to it in 2010. Both have inspired me to help raise as much money as I can through this event each year in our continued collective fight against this cruel disease.
