Story

Covid-19 has had a devastating impact on Cancer Focus NI.  It has paused most of services for people affected by cancer and has postponed all of the charity's fundraising events. As 90% of their income comes from fundraising alone, funds are at a seriously low level- which is why I've decided, along with some great pals in the Weavers Cross/Belfast Transport Hub team to do the Belfast City Virtual Marathon Distance Run this year! 

My running career is at best inconsistent but as you know, I'm too competitive for my own good and I love a challenge, so the trainers are on! I'm going to try and run the full distance (over a couple of days!) but there may be some light jogging/speed walking too but those who know me know that walk is like most people's run anyway! 

Any donation you can make would be much appreciated but the bigger the better! haha

Thanks folks! xx
