Story

Hello everyone!!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

So i've gone and done it! I've finally entered a Marathon (Ahhh) and I thought to mark the occasion, i'd try and do a bit of fundraising for Charity in the process!

I have not entered alone though....with me will also be my AMAZING Mum and Dad, who are running for two other well known Cancer related Charities. We have a very personal reason for running for these charities, as Cancer has affected our Family directly in the past year. Between us we are going to do our best to be three muskateers who make a small difference to help combat Cancer and the effects it has on the individuals who have it, and thier families.

If you know me you will know that I love to exercise. You'll know that I've done my fair share of Half Marathons (most of them for fun). However, i'd like to emphasize, that this time is NOT going to be easy for me (or that fun). Just like all other first time Marathon runners, running and training for this is going to cost me in blood, sweat and tears. I'm going to be out training in wind, rain, cold and mud- and hopefully some sunshine too. In return and to make it just that little bit easier, i'd really appreciate your support.

Donating with Just Giving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

£1 or £100- Anything you can give could really make the difference. Donating only takes 5 minutes (and it will leave you feeling really good all day too). 

Thanks so much everyone!!

Love Hollie ( Look out for Hols on the day ;)
