Story

Sooooo some of you may already know what a tinsy bit of a crazed obsessed runner I am......and just for the love of it!! However I have now finally taken the plunge (as spoken about so many times) and signed myself up to run the London Marathon!

Although a seasoned runner.....this is still a huge challenge for me to tackle!! And a variety of thoughts from anxiety and what the hell am I doing to pure exhilaration and excitement are constantly swimming around in my little head!

Cancer research have been generous enough to give me and 4 other work collegues a place in the marathon to run for their outstanding charity!! A place I am truly honoured to have been granted! 

I am not going to beg and plead.......(just yet 😉), but Cancer Research UK is a fantastic charity that does a truemendous amount of work to help fight, identify and develop new ways to beat this awful disease.  A devastating disease that touches so many of us throughout our lives, whether thats directly or indirectly!

So all I ask is that if you would like to give my little chicken legs and cancer research a little helping hand then please have a furtle in those pockets and donate!!  No amount is too small.........every little helps!

Thank you in advance for your support,

Lots of love
