My story

 

Hi All

After losing 4 stone and still managing to keep it off, my next venture in continuing to raise funds for Berkshire East & South Bucks. Women's Aid is to run in the British London 10K on 12 July. Please dig deep and support this worthwhile cause!

Click on the 'DONATE NOW' button above and don't forget that with every pound you give the charity will receive an extra 28% as gift aid.

Thanks a million!

 Thanks to all those who have encouraged me and donated towards my weight loss program to raise funds for East Berkshire Women's Aid.

Your donation is much appreciated and will help in many ways in assisting these vulnerable families.

My aim was to lose up to 4 stones;  56 lbs or  25.4 kgs by mid December 2008.

I have followed a healthy eating programme and an exercise regime of jogging, swimming, walking and working out at the gym, on an average of  four times per week. I have also participated in the 13 miles Maidenhead Boundary Walk [4 hours in the rain!] on 5th October and ran the 10k Dorney Lake Cancer Research Race on 26th October in 1 hour and 16 minutes. http://www.run10ksponsorme.org/karenroach1.  On the 22nd March 2009 I  also RAN in the Water of Life Half Marathon [between Marlow & Henley].

Many thanks to my local health and fitness club - Langley Leisure Centre, Parlaunt Road, Langley, Berkshire for contributing to this cause, by offering me free membership to all facilities including the gym and swimming pool. Special thanks to Luke  Hughes - my personal trainer  at Langley Leisure Centre who has encourage me in getting this far, especially in taking up running and participating in the 10K run for Cancer Research. http://www.synergyclubs.co.uk/langley.html

On my target date 16/12/2008  I have weighed in at  3.9 stones or  54 lbs or 24.5 kgs - just 2lbs under target!!!

THERE IS STILL AN OPPORTUNITY TO SPONSOR ME !!

 THANKS AGAIN FOR SPONSORING THIS WORTHY CAUSE!
