Story

Hey there, thanks for viewing. Please take the time to read this page ;)

By running this marathon I am celebrating an end of an era. In May I will be graduating from Leeds College of Art, in which I have been studying here for four years.  

Leeds as a city has given me a great insight of living life and for the first time probably ever, I do not know what is around the corner. I am running this half marathon to show the city my respect for all the fun and stablility it has given me.  

I have chosen to run for a great cause too. The British Bee Association.

"One in three mouthfuls of the food we eat is dependent on pollination at a time when a crisis is threatening the world's honey bees."

People skirt over the importance bee's have in this world. As a nation we are already seeing bee's die out.  It is up to us to save these bee's, and keep the cycle of life strong and secure.

Please donate to this fabulous cause and take it as seriously as I am. You can follow my progress and training through my blog and my social media pages. 

Have fun reading while I have fun training!! =D
