Story
THANK YOU SO MUCH for all your supports and generous donations - our running report can be found from the following link:

it's time to face our annual challenge of running the Great South Run!
This is our FOURTH TIME participating in this great running event as a family of two (a team of mum and daughter). Over the summer, we welcomed a new addition, Teddy (Yellow Labrador puppy), who will cheer us on as we embark the challenge!!
The GSR is so special to us - just over 4 years ago, soon after our loss of Michael (my husband, Alice's father), we decided to enter GSR - it gave us motivations to keep moving forward as we received so much supports from family, friends, and colleagues.
We would love to keep our tradition going and our memory of Michael alive.
Alice is now 10-years old and will participate in the Junior Run (2.5 km) on Saturday 14th October. I will be running (jogging and walking, rather!) 10 miles on Sunday 15th October. This will be Alice’s second solo run (I accompanied her in 2019 and 2021), and my 7th Great South Run.
We are raising money for Salisbury Hospice Charity - it is the charity who supported Michael's wish of being cared at home. They gave him the best palliative care and dedications to his needs, even to our daughter and myself.
We are also running for our dearest friend's family in memory of their loving husband/Daddy who received round clock care from the Salisbury Hospice.
We have been able to get through the darkest tunnel and move forward because of the supports we received from such charities as well as our family and friends near and far.
With your kind support and any donation, we could extend our invisible hands to those similar families in need of supports.
Let's embrace our life, friendship and memories of loved ones💕
With love
Miyuki and Alice xx
