Story

Hi guys!

Why am I doing this?  I haven't run anywhere for over a year, so the thought of running for a bus - let alone doing a proper 10k run - is very scary!  But, my chickens are the best thing - nosy, chatty & full of fun, if still a little bald!  Best of all, they still lay like crazy & don't ask for much in return!  How could they be written off after just one miserable year at a battery farm?

Well they don't have to be.  Thanks to the Battery Hen Welfare Trust, these animals can have a happy retirement in loving homes.  As a shining example of someone who gets puffed out going up the stairs, training for this run will be an enormous effort for me, being only 3 months after having Tallulah.  So, your contributions will be well deserved & very much appreciated!

So please sponsor me & help give these magic little animals a second chance at life!

Thank you,

Trixy xxx
