Hi Guys and Dolls, thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page for Crohn's and Colitis UK.

The plan..... was to complete Tough Mudder this year to raise awareness and money for Crohn's Disease. Training was going epic, muscles bulging and the pump on, until my Crohn's Disease decided to show its ugly smelly self.

The reality.......  current exercise routine is between bed, toilet and repeat a lot, so I've decided to give the Rutland Bluebell Crohn's an Colitis Uk walk a go, attempting 2 miles and if I can manage go for the big 5 miler, hard-core, I know, but this is all I can manage at the moment.

I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease at age 14. It has had a huge influence on my life and decisions made ( and it not a various glam disease to have as a young girl). It is a progressive, auto-immune, incurable disease that can flare at any point in a person's life and can keep flaring. It is managed with long term medications, liquid feeds and eventually removal of parts of the bowel. All of which I have experienced.

I am a big believer in what knocks you down, makes you stronger. Next year I will be back with a vengeance and Tough Mudder and Spartan Race won't know what's hit it *bicep pose*

Any donations will be greatly appreciated and lets get this crappy ( excuse the pun) disease in the spotlight a bit more with more recognition and fundraising :)

Mahoooosive thanks

Peace out!
