Hey everyone,

So for a reason I would have failed to understand even a couple of months ago, I have decided to run a half marathon, in Bath, in just over two months. Bear in mind I never thought I could run 2 miles without walking, let alone 13 so this is probably one of the craziest things I've ever done. 

I have an urge at the moment to try new things. This wasn't a New Year's Resolution or anything. It's actually something I decided in December 2015 after I ran 4 miles for The Boxing Day Challenge in Cheltenham for Winston's Wish, and for the first time I felt like I could actually achieve something like this. Since then I've been out running a few times a week and have been able to build up the miles and so being able to complete a half-marathon is (sort of) in sight.

I'm running for Macmillan Cancer Support because not only is it a fantastic charity that does amazing work but is a charity that supports an issue that is somewhat close to home.

I'm running on 13th March 2016, and it would mean the world to me if you could donate any amount you feel you would like to before then. Every little bit will help and will hopefully spur me on to actually do this.

Thank you so much! :)

Alex
