I’m running this half marathon to support one of my best friends and her family as they face Motor Neurone Disease.

MND has affected too many people very close to me, so when Kirstie’s amazing sister and one of my favourite Farbon’s was diagnosed just after Christmas and the idea was floated … I couldn’t say no.

This is very much their fight and their story - I’m just here to run alongside, raise money, and probably complain the whole way round. It’ll be my first half marathon with zero experience, so let’s be honest… Kirstie will likely be the one carrying me.

All money raised will go towards helping people affected by MND. Thank you so much for any support
