It has been a long time since my rugby boots saw the light of day so, back in December last year, I decided to get off the sofa and start running. Two friends convinced me to sign up for the Robin Hood half-marathon and the challenge was set. I have also signed up to do four 10k Wolf Runs (muddy obstacle courses: woods, obstacles, lakes and fields) in the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter of 2018 - that water is going to be cold in November! If anyone fancies joining me on those, do let me know!

Biggest and Middlest have being finding out about Uganda and The Mustard Seed Project at their school, and the awesome work that has been going on due to fundraising efforts both in and out of school. They have been providing clean water, a school and porridge, among other things, to the children they are supporting. This challenge seemed like the perfect opportunity to raise funds for the project. You can find out more about the brilliant work they have been doing by visiting their Facebook page:

Any donation you feel able to spare would be greatly appreciated by both myself and the project. This will be my first half-marathon so any motivation will be gratefully received!
