I've only ever run a muddy 5k before so this is going to be a huge challenge for me. Prior to training for this the furthest I've run is 4 miles and I now have to increase that to over 13 miles.

Anyone that knows me, or has spoken to me for five minutes, will know how much I care for animals. That's why I'm running for World Animal Protection. They campaign for animals in the wild, in communities, in farming and in disasters. 

Their goals include:

• Stopping sea turtle farming
• Achieving a worldwide ban on bull fighting
• Preventing the spread of factory farming in the UK 
• Moving fast and protecting animals in disaster

Their achievements include: 

• Almost halved the number of bears being exploited for bear bile in Vietnam
  
• Helped over 70,000 animals after devastating Typhoon Haiyan
• Secured the future of the London Metropolitan Police Wildlife Crime Unit
• Rescued suffering bears and relocated them into sanctuaries
• Defeated plans for a US-style intensive dairy farm in the UK
