In 2018 I set myself a New Year’s resolution to complete 2 half marathons in 2019 (what was I thinking?). For the first, my main goal was to beat my previous PB and for the second, I wanted to run for a charity. In March, I completed the Hackney Half and after doing little to no training I can only say it was one of the most painful runs ever. On October 13^th I will be partaking in the Royal Parks Half Marathon and have been lucky enough to have secured a spot running for Rainbow Trust. This amazing charity supports families who have a child aged 0-18 years with a life threatening or terminal illness and need the bespoke support the charity offers. 

Fingers crossed this one goes better than the last 🤞🏻  Thanks so much for your support ❤️
