Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In January 2016 I decided to start running when I couldn't even run for a minute. I have been on quite a running journey through amazing support and sheer determination. Two and a half years later I have decided to enter the biggest half marathon event in the U.K the Great North Run. 

I run for the enjoyment, fitness and mental strength it gives me. It's tough to fit in training for a half marathon with working full time and having a family. However, I am determined to meet my target for Dementia U.K and know I have the support of my family and friends. 

I have a couple of friends who have close family members with Dementia and its really heartbreaking for all involved. I am honored to be running my 2nd half marathon to support Dementia U.K
