Hi everyone

As most of you know, I aimed to do the Bristol half-marathon a year or so ago but I had to pull out due to getting shin splints and having problems with my knee.

I have been trying to find something achievable to do ever since and have decided upon the Shine Walking marathon. It's for Cancer Research UK, a company that I support year round but is also close to my heart due to how cancer has affected friends and family.

There are several people who very kindly sponsored me to do the Bristol half-marathon and I would not ask those who did to sponsor me again for this. From that, I had already raised £346 and I have gone for a lower fundraising target this time as I know there are so many people who ask for sponsorship for various events (most more taxing than a walking marathon!)

I went for £250 as I thought that if most of my friends donated £1 or £2 then I could reach that, which would give me a total of over £500, including the previous amount raised.

Anyway, thank you in advance for any donations and I'm sure you'll see some silly photos of me in my Shine t-shirt wandering through the night!
