Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I will be running the Wigan 10k on the 7th September. It is going to be a big challenge for me as I’m just about managing 5k at the moment but I know I will try my best and finish. I have a “finish lines not finish times” mentality so no matter how long it takes me just finishing will be a great achievement for me. As extra motivation I am hoping to raise some money for Breastfeeding Together, the charity I also volunteer for as a peer supporter.

I started BStronger with Nicole last September at 8 months postpartum when I was in the worst place I’d ever been both mentally and physically. I was out of breath and feeling sick just running 100m and had such low confidence and self esteem. So for me even having the confidence to enter this event is something I’m proud of, even though I am absolutely bricking it still! I have worked on my fitness, strength and self esteem this past year and although I have a long way to go still this is a milestone on my journey and to make it to the finish line with my big red, sweaty face will make me so proud!
