Reebok Bristol Half Marathon 2009 · 6 September 2009 ·

EVERY 90 SECONDS someone in the UK is admitted to hospital with an acquired brain injury (ABI). There are many possible causes, such as a fall, a road traffic accident, an assault, a tumour or a stroke. A brain injury can happen to anyone, at any time. When it does, we're here to help

Story

On Sunday 6th September we will be running the Bristol Half Marathon which to many may seem like a walk in the park but to us will feel like an epic achievement as we are both virtually novice runners. 

We are doing this for both selfish and unselfish reasons.  One because we are both celebrating milestone birthdays this year and wanted a target to get fit for and Two because we wanted to run for a worthy cause which is close to our hearts.

We are running for Headway which is a brain injury charity, which provide help and support to people affected by brain injury and their families and carers. Anna's mum suffered a serious brain injury 2 years ago and still suffers the consequences to this day so this charity felt the most worthy and relevant in the circumstances. 

We have been training hard(ish) but its about to get much harder (no more time for lengthy chats whilst running) in the lead up to the big day which is tough in the mini heat wave we have been experiencing and because we can't not gossip when we get together. 

Please support us in our quest.....
