Earlier this year, I heard the devastating news that my friend Dominic Bergin had been diagnosed with stage 4, secondary bowel cancer, with only 6-12 months to live. He's 34, so only a few years older than me, and was due to get married next year to his fiancée Robyn.

To help contribute to the £250,000 that he has to raise for treatment, I have decided to run the Cardiff 10k on September 11. I don't bake and time is short but I am fortunate enough to have the use of both of my legs - which means I have no excuse to not do this.

Those of you who know me, will recognise that I am more comfortable wearing 4 inch heels than trainers but this will be a personal challenge for a great cause.

Please join me in raising funds for Dominic and help save someone's life.
