My dear friend Isabel and myself will be running the Wachau Half Marathon on 17th September. I have never run that distance before, and to mark this occasion, would like to try to raise some money.

My nephew Callum had a serious accident in August 2013. With loving support from his family and friends and incredible determination, he has fought to focus on his abilities and as part of that, joined Danby Rovers 2 years ago. It has made the world of difference to him; he plays the sport his loves without any judgement. It has helped his recovery - physically, mentally and socially. So, if you can support them via my half-marathon, that would be fabulous!
