Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page set up in memory of Katie Law aged 29, who passed away on the 11th February 2012 after a brave 7 month battle.

I have known Katie for 17 years, she was a popular, fun loving person who had a great personality, never failing to make me smile. The only other organised run I have taken part in was the Great south run in September 2010, were Katie was there cheering me on, and I no in spirit she will be at this one too.

Katie was so positive throughout her illness, I admire her for her strength and bravery she showed. She really was unique and special to many people.

This is my first marathon, I have been training very hard please donate now in memory of Katie, for those of you that knew Katie as I cross the finish line, I will be sure to give it the famous Katie thumbs up pose.
