I’ll be running the Birmingham Half Marathon 2022 on Sunday 1st May 2022 for the Lily Mae Foundation.

After many years of IVF, miscarriage and desperately wanting a baby we were finally blessed with our beautiful little boy, Sebastian.

During my pregnancy my husband and I attended an antenatal class called Bump2baby where we met 5 other couples in various stages of pregnancy. Tragically one of those couples lost their baby which was absolutely heartbreaking and I don’t think any of us have forgotten the moment we heard this news. The Lily Mae Foundation helped them so much and provided much needed support. This is why I’ll be raising money for them and running the Great Birmingham Half Marathon, I’ll be 30 weeks postpartum after having a C section so although I was a runner before this hasn’t been an easy journey back to fitness as I decided not to run during pregnancy.

Thank you so much for your donations and anything you can spare for this amazing charity xxx
