Stratford half marathon on may 13th!! That’s  the new date!! Slightly flatter course with some stunning views of Stratford :)

So, as you all know, I like to challenge myself, I ran the 2 castles 10k last year after basically no training, post surgery and illness, and I still did it. This year, I’m challenging myself even more!! As much as i said I would never run again, the little voice inside my head said, you can do it... so to make myself find it even harder to back out of it, I’ve decided to run it for charity!! As a paediatric nurse, I see a lot of sick children. 

This particular charity provides a little something extra, something that they can focus on, something they can achieve, something they can enjoy as a family, making the memories matter and count. And that’s what I’m going to focus on. These children go through so much and continue to smile, they continue to show grit and determination, despite the pain they are in. The just keep going. I am going to find this challenge particularly hard as I’m in no way a runner. But I’m going to try. I’m going to give it my all. I WILL struggle but I WILL get to the end, even if I have to walk it. I WILL do this for them. 

Please donate and support me; I will post updates on my training, let’s do this, for them!!
