Last year I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, an illness which runs in my family. I have had a complete lifestyle and dietary change, and have committed myself to staying fit and healthy for my young family. After 3 months of being diagnosed I had lost 10 kgs and had reduced my sugar levels to well below the level where medication would be required. I signed up to run the Robin Hood Half Marathon as my fitness goal for this year.

During a local golf day I was introduced to Bodie's father and listened to his story which touched my heart. The way he and his family have responded to the tragedy is truly inspiring. I knew this was the charity I wanted to raise money for and hopefully you can help.
