Dear all,

As many of you are now familiar, I have been training for my first ever half marathon in May 2016. For those who know me, I have never been the "active sporty" type, and my training so far has introduced me to a whole new world of struggle, determination and motivation. Why am I doing this? For Cancer Research UK - an amazing charity who tirelessly fund doctors and scientists to help beat cancer sooner. 

I have been fortunate, as I am able to run this marathon for those who can't . The unfortunate part is the impact cancer has had on those around and close to me in the last year alone. 

So, as you know, part of this event is fund-raising and I would like to ask you to sponsor me for this great cause. I appreciate any donation you are able to make. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
