Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 

I am running my first ever 10k in May 2018 and my aim is to raise £250 for Diabetes UK.  This is a charity very close to my heart.  My eldest daughter Molly suffers with the horrible disease and I see how much it affects her daily life.  After a horrible hospital admission in August and Molly ending up with kidney failure, I made a promise I would set myself a challenge. Something I have to stick to the same as she does.

So the training has started.  5am get ups so I can get to the gym before work and then weekend outdoor runs :) I am not a runner so this is a massive challenge for me.

Any amount of sponsor will be greatly appreciated.  I will keep you updated with my progress.
