Story

Hi all,

Thank you for visiting my page. In October my Dad and I will be running The Great South run, I have recently started running to improve my fitness and shed off a few pounds.

At this point in time the furthest I've ran is about 6k, so 10 miles is a bit daunting for me... But I will keep pushing myself and hopefully complete the run without any major issues!

Last year my oldest friend passed away after nearly 2 years of fighting Leukaemia. I have decided to use this opportunity to raise money for the Teenage Cancer Trust, who i know did an amazing job of looking after Sam and his family for the duration of his battle. Without their help, his last few years with us would have been far more difficult.

If you have any money you'd like to donate, I would be incredibly greatful. I know the run will be a hell of a lot easier to do, knowing i have the support of my friends and family pushing me on.

Thanks in advance! xo
