Manchester Central Foodbank is a charity serving emergency food to people in crisis. We work with professional referrers to support over 1000 people a month across Central, North and East Manchester with a food parcel as well as signposting support and information to get them out of their crisis.

Story

I can not believe i am writing this because i hate running.

I swore i would never have the time, comittment, stamina, or desire to run a marathon.

But here we are... i cannot think of a better cause than supporting local families who are struggling to put food on the table.

No child, no person, should ever feel the pang of hunger or shame for not having the means to provide food.

So yes i can absolutely train for a marathon, its a luxury.

I havent signed up for an event as i have no idea when theyll be on so id like to get it done before thats a possiblity - this side of Summer.

Im thinking May. 

Ill be running alone. Did i mention i hate running? 

I know most of my friends are fit runners and this isnt a big deal but i havent run further than 13 miles ever and ive had a 2 year hiatus since having my daughter so please show some sympathy (money) and donate to this charity if you can.

Boring, moaning updates and sweaty selfies to follow.
