I'm completely terrified to be running the marathon. I wasn't running at all when I found out I had a place. So this is a huge challenge for me! The training alone is overwhelming at times.

But I'm hoping I can make a difference for a charity close to my heart.

Any encouragement and support gratefully received! And if anyone wants to come cheer me on on 2nd October I'll need all the support I can get!! It's going to be tough!
