Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

"Prior to lockdown 1 I could barely run to the end of street, never mind a half or even full marathon. I did my first 5km as part of the run 5, donate 5, nominate 5 in April 2020. To relieve the boredom and monotony of this and subsequent lockdowns, I began to run further to improve my physical and mental health. I gradually built to regularly running 10k and further and eventually joined Cheltenham running club. Cheltenham half marathon in September 2021 was my first official event. I have now underatken to double that distance and complete a full marathon in Manchester in April 2022. Needless to say, I am a little nervous... your donations are much appreciated for this very worthy cause."
