Thank you for taking the time to view my page.

I am running (and this may come as a shock to some of you)  along with a group of friends from UKAP  to raise money for Shpresa Program, a charitable organisation that has done amazing work with the less privileged Albanian community in the UK.

The particular cause I am running for is very special to me. It entails the inclusion of the Albanian language in the iGCSE (international GCSE) qualification developed by the Cambridge Institute.

I am not a runner and prior to training for this event had not gone for more than 6 kilometer jogs and even that with stops. In fact I always hated running and could not get myself to do it. Alas, I have trained for this event since July now, albeit with a 4-week  interruption due to health reasons and which has set me back on the original time aim. Nevertheless, I am still doing it even if it means at a snail's pace. And no, I won't be wearing heels for a change!

Your kind support will be truly appreciated, so please dig deep and donate now. The sheer thought of me running/jogging/walking that day should provide enough entertainment.
