Hello friends and family.
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. As many of you will know I have had a busy year and have not done quite as much training as normal. I therefore debated whether to do the Marathon again this year.
Why the debate? Well in case I fail, or in case it hurts too much, or in case the 4 mile an hour bus catches me and I will be embarrassed. Then I remembered my best friend Shirley who died 3 years ago in St Clare's Hospice. I remembered how brave she was, how brave and supportive the staff were, how brave her husband Michael and daughter Sophie were and still are. So I told myself to get a grip and go for it. So I got a grip and am going for it.
Please go for it too. Sponsor me for as much as you can spare and help St Clare's Hospice to continue it's brilliant work for other patients and their families.
Don't forget if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
Hope you are all happy and healthy Karen xxxxxxxxxxxxx
