Yo homiezzz! 

I think I've officially lost the plot as I've signed up to run the Hackney half marathon on 8th May. It will be the furthest I have ever run and I must be mad but I figured if I get sponsored I can't back out!

I currently don't have a target time but I may update this depending on my training progress, I'd just really like to finish it! 

I am fundraising for RSPCA Leeds, Wakefield and District because I wanted to raise money for a local charity and protecting animals against cruelty is a cause which is very close to my heart. I have visited this branch and seen first hand the fantastic work they do and hope I can help to contribute to that.

I have done 10k before but this is more than double that so I am a little bit bricking it! I have a training plan and have been advised that this is do-able! I am really committing to this challenge and I promise to make every effort to cross the finish line on 8th May! 

Any contributions you make would be most appreciated - I have never been sponsored for a run before but I thought I better had for this one to avoid bottling out!

Lots of love,

Fernando xxxxx
