This is a story of two halves: one half is about a journey I've been on and the other half is about giving back. 

I originally decided to run a 10km as a personal challenge to better myself, and to see what I'm capable of. As someone who has never really incorporated sport into their life, I kept making excuses why I didn't have time. I knew exercise would have a really positive influence on my mindset, but it honestly took a few months to start really investigating with any fervour.

Then it dawned on me that I could run for a charity ... and the decision was made. 

Alzeimers has affected my family, I have seen first hand how awful this disease is - I knew I had to raise money for them,  and the Vitality 10Km was a perfect opportunity to do so. 

So, here I am. Running! Anyone that knows me, knows that I don't run ... but now I can't wait until the 27th May 2019 to run. It will be a big challenge for me, but knowing I can raise money for this charity gives me the focus to smash it. 

I am also doing this to show my daughter that anything is possible. If I can run a 10Km she can run the world (and probably will one day!) and that is a wonderful thing! 

Thank you for reading and thank you in advance for any money you can donate!!
