Story

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. If you can support me with a donation to help me reach my target I would be extremely grateful 🥰 xxxx

I am slightly terrified 😱 to be taking on running a marathon. I know this will be a huge challenge for me mentally and physically! 

I am very very lucky to have an amazing group of fellow Energise Ladies around me who inspire me everyday taking on their own challenges 🙏🏻 So I know that with their help, as well as the support from my family and friends I am going to do my best! I will dedicate the early months of 2024 to training for the marathon. I will endeavour to get myself in the best shape of my life! 💪🏻

If you know me at all you will know that I am passionate about all things health, fitness and sports related. As a qualified children's fitness instructor I am also passionate about Kids and Sport! 🤸🏻‍♀️

I knew that if I was going to run a Marathon I wanted to do it for a great cause....and then I came across GET KIDS GOING, sport & mobility for disabled children. Here's some more info below on the charity........⬇️
