Story

As many of you know, I lost my Grandad to Alzheimer’s in march this year. Since losing grandad I have struggled mentally in ways I never have before but I decided to set myself a challenge and this is where my running journey started. In April I started to run using the couch25k app, and struggled to even managed a minute. It was a huge challenge for me but it has helped to keep my mind busy and it has been good to focus on something.

I am by no means a fast runner, but I am enjoying it and also proud that I have continued to see something through even when I have found it extremely difficult to even get out of bed some days.

Life without grandad is difficult, but I know he would be super proud that I am completing this for him and I couldn’t think of a better charity that is closer to my heart ❤️

Please donate to help other people and families who suffer with this awful disease. 🙏🏼

Grandad, this one is for you. 😇✨🌈❤️
