I promised my Mum in the weeks before she died that I would get back into shape. I’ve still got a long way to go, but the last 5 months have been quite a trip...
So, here we go! In slightly less than a month, I’m going to try and run 10km around Regents Park. I’m doing this to honour my promise to Mama and to raise money for Macmillan, a leading Cancer Support charity here in the UK.
The Macmillan nurses man the out of hours phone lines at the Royal Marsden Hospital, where Mama was treated. They also offer 24:7 support to people with cancer and their families. They do amazing work.
I haven’t run this distance since 2009... so, wish me luck!
