I’ve set myself a personal challenge to complete a marathon. I have a 5 hour window to do it in. I was contemplating if I was good enough and decided I also wanted to do it for charity. After some thought, I’ve chosen Held in our Hearts.

My reasoning is while I have been very blessed with 4 amazing girls, many other people, a lot of whom I know personally, have not been as blessed and experienced the trauma of miscarriage, stillborn or SIDS.

The courage, strength, resilience and everything else these individuals show is beyond admirable.

If these amazing individuals have the incredible strength after being dealt such a horrible trauma, I’m sure I can find the strength to run 26.2 miles.

This charity supports baby loss counselling and support.

Thank you 😊
