Story

So as some of you may already know, my sister asked me 7 weeks ago if I would do the Worksop 1/2 marathon with her. If you’ve ever met my sister, “No” is never really an option so I agreed to do it … on the agreement she doesn’t expect me to run with her (if you know you know) … Now for anyone who knows me you will know I am not a sports person and definitely not a runner. However here I am 7 weeks into a training program and today I completed a 9.5 mile run. During my run it hit me just how mentally and physically challenging this is and I thought I need to do this for something close to my heart to motivate me to not give up.

10 years ago on the 31st December we lost our beautiful auntie Zo. So it seems only right to raise funds for the place that cared for her. If you would like to sponsor my run, I will be donating all funds to Western Park. I hope on the day I have as much strength and courage as she showed throughout her treatment.
