Story

Unbelievably I have signed up for the Brighton Half Marathon at the end of February. As everyone knows I'm one of the least sporty people on the planet.  Before this training started I had last visited the gym in 2005 and actually threw up at the finish line of the one 10k I attempted a few years ago.  I promise I will not be repeating this experience again so this is genuinely the only time I will ever be asking for sponsorship. Its going to be the slowest half marathon in history but any donations to my selected charity RISE would be extremely appreciated. 

Rise is a local charity that provides Sanctuary and Support for women affected by domestic violence in East Sussex.  They offer practical help ranging from direct advice to refuge space to those in urgent need. They also work in schools teaching children about healthy relationships to prevent the next generation from repeating the pattern. Every year they support over 1800 women and their families to recover and reclaim their lives.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
