On Sunday 13th October, a team of runners made up of staff & supporters of Bury Hospice will take on the challenge of running the Manchester Half Marathon , starting and finishing by Old Trafford.

Training started for myself at the end of May in preparation for the 13.1 mile/21K run.

Bury Hospice cared for my mother in law Sharon,our friend Kristian and Karla's cousins husband Dave and all our families in the hardest time of our lives. They allowed us all to make precious memories and were there when we needed them most.
