Story
As many of you will know, our girl Katie Walker has recently received a shocking blood cancer diagnosis. As you can expect, the news took us as a group of best friends completely by surprise and left us all utterly heartbroken. Whilst news like this is devastating for anybody to receive, we are in awe of how strong Katie has been throughout. She has taken every day as it comes, continuing to be there for her beautiful family and always showing up with the big smile we all love and adore. As a group we wanted to do something to show our support and raise money for a charity that saves the lives of so many suffering from this condition. One Saturday evening, fully under the influence of a few wines, we decided we would sign up for a team half marathon. Now if you know us, you will know we don’t typically spend our days running or training…. So this is quite the commitment. We have started training and my god it hasn’t been pretty 😂. Some of us struggling to do a mile, others with injuries and a few not quite out of the blocks. As Katie’s treatment is fast approaching, we wanted to start the fund raising early as a way for everyone to show her how loved and supported she is, helping her through the more difficult days. In return for your donations, we promise to share our training journey, including our pain, bruises and thoughts of “WTF have we signed up for”. With that in mind, please donate as much or as little as you can to show this beautiful girl how loved she is and raise crucial funds for those who will be faced with this in the future.
All our love,
Lauren, Lisa, Sam, Kate, Shannon and Kerri xxxxxxx
