Hi, I’m super excited to be running the Manchester half marathon at the end of May, this will be my first half marathon and training is going well! Besides running for a great cause, I’m running because I love to run. I’m not too focused on the time, my goal is just to enjoy it and experience it in the ‘here and now’. 

I’ve decided to run for Alzheimer’s Society , a brilliant charity that helps and supports those affected by dementia. My Grandad was diagnosed 2 years ago just after Covid and although sometimes he makes me giggle, it’s not always easy. It’s very bitter sweet. 

I can’t wait to get my trainers on and run alongside so many people running for themselves and for great causes! Any donations would be hugely appreciated. Bring on May! 

At Alzheimer’s Society we’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. We do this by giving help to those living with dementia today, and providing hope for the future.
