On January 7th 2015 the world lost a cracker. A daughter, sister, aunty, cousin, friend and indeed someone with a sense of humour so acute that she had even agreed to marry me... and that takes some doing granted. 

Rach was quite some person. She spent her whole life working for charities including Whizz Kidz and Christian Aid. An altruistic soul,  Rachel didn't put herself first. It was always others right up until the end.

Metastatic breast cancer is no fun. Rach battled her hardest, tried her very best. She never stopped smiling. She never stopped caring. The girl even asked if others around her were ok when there was undoubtedly a bleak path to tread. 

Rachel left more than a few broken hearts behind. We don't want that to happen again. If I can run and help then that's what I'll do.

So Billy Jenkins will do his best to run a sub 3 hour marathon this year. Can't promise I'll crack it but my word I'll try my bloody best and I'll be carrying someone on my shoulder round those 26.2 miles whatever happens. 

If you could spare a few pennies I'll be eternally grateful.

Thank you 

Billy xx
