Story

She with big boobs, a bad knee and a body not designed for running has been coerced into doing a 10k run for Teenage Cancer Trust.

Yes that does say RUN! If you can stop laughing for long enough I'd really appreciate you sponsoring me. I'm doing the British 10k in July so I have a few weeks to try getting into shape!!

I am completely unfit and this will be a huge challenge for me but it is for a great cause. I'm pretty sure I've bored most of you about how great Teenage Cancer Trust is and all about the amazing work that they/we do!

All the money raised goes towards building and maintaining TCT units around the country. So far TCT has 9 units and plans to build a further 14. Each day 6 teenagers hear the words "you have cancer", TCT's aim is for each of these to be treated on a TCT ward. On these wards teenagers can be teenagers, they can play playstations, surf the internet and have their mates stay over.

With your help and sponsorship TCT can continue the aim of catering for all teenagers in the UK rather than just the 30% at the moment.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Teenage Cancer Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

A huge thank you for sponsoring me, I know I promised I wouldn't do another walk/run type thing but Nick in my office is VERY persuasive!!!

Love love love xxx
