For those that know me well, will know that I care an awful lot for those who have found themselves on the streets. For that reason, I've volunteered with Barnabus now for over a year BUT I never feel like I'm doing enough. 

Seeing first hand the incredible work Barnabus do to break the sad cycle of homelessness in Manchester, I want to do all I can to support them!

So what am i doing? Volunteering with Barnabus at the Great Manchester run last year, I made a deal with a fellow volunteer that I'd run the 10km for them in 2022. 

Now ... prior to january this year i have ran on and off, mostly on the treadmill and usually 5kish runs and one 10km run, which at the time I never thought I'd do. Since starting running in Jan and joining Ancoats Running Club (ARC) 🤟 I decided to push myself even further and so instead, stupidly or courageously I signed up to the half marathon. 

Not only that 2 weeks prior to the half, along with the barnabus crew, I will be competing in the Manchester charity dragon boat race - I've never rowed a boat in my life!!🤷🏼‍♀️ 

From someone who never normally asks for sponsorship, who is training her little ass off to make sure I can proudly rep Barnabus and ARC on the 8th and 22 May 2022 and hopefully not make a complete tit of myself, please please please donate anything you can to support the incredible work of my little charity and friends at BARNABUS!💛  (Further details on Barnabus below)
