On the 9th November I will be running the Spartan Beast Race in London for the charity Get Kids Going! 

The race will definitely be a challenge and has been described as the "toughest on the planet" - around 22km long with 25+ obstacles. I will be running in knee deep mud, jumping over fire, climbing under barbed wire, and more! Check out this video for a little preview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v20m-Ia9qYg

 I am running the race with a team from the Warwick University Philosophy, Politics and Economics Society and I would love it if all my friends and family could help support us. 

I will be raising money for a charity called Get Kids Going!, which gives disabled children the opportunity to participate in sports. As someone that absolutely loves sport (literally don't know what I would do without it), this charity is particularly important to me. I am passionate about helping children to do something that I love and that has helped shape who I am. Get Kids Going! has helped handicapped children across the UK to achieve their dreams and even allowed some to become paralympic champions.

Please help me support this great cause. I would be extremely grateful for any donations received, even if they are very, very small - it all adds up!

Keep an eye out for updates on how the training is going on this page.

Lots of love,

Julia
