Story

Back in 2014, I ran (shuffled and crawled) my first Half Marathon, swearing at the finish line, through my sobs, to NEVER, EVER do it again!

Regrettably, whilst away for work and drinking alone I had one too many glasses of a full-bodied red and was coerced into signing up again by my hockey team via a WhatsApp pincer movement! Will I ever learn?!!!

If you could have a rummage about your houses and donate any spare change to the marvellous charity that is Julia's House, it would make this whole thing a little more palatable and motivate me to haul 12 stone round 13.2 miles! If you're lucky enough to find a tenner in an old pair of trousers, that's very welcome too!

Many thanks in anticipation of your generosity!
