Story

Who am I?
  • Receptionist, Ward Clerk, Health Care assistant for ESNEFT & NHS Professionals, a band 2 of many talents
  • volunteer at Parkruns on Saturday/Sundays
  • volunteer at Blue Cross
  • cat sitter at Cat in a Flat
  • Videomaker at HeartQissa on Facebook

Why am I running? I know of 2 nurses at Ipswich Hospital that lost their babies and were helped get through this by the amazing baby bereavement support group (part of the Colchester & Ipswich Hospitals Charity). One of them happens to be my friend.

How ready am I to run?

  • My longest race is 10k (done twice in the last 2 years)
  • I am obese with a BMI of 32+

May God have mercy on my soul, it really sounds like I am not ready! But I am not a quitter, so see you at the finish line!

When and Where?
Bucharest (Half)  Marathon on October 9,2022. (because Ipswich Half got moved)

Ipswich Half Marathon October 23, 2022
