Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running for the Muscular Dystrophy campaign as the disease Muscular Dystrophy affects members of my family and has sadly taken the life of two of my relatives.

Muscular dystrophy and related muscle diseases cause muscles to waste and weaken. More than 70,000 babies, children and adults in the UK are affected.

Muscular Dystrophy Campaign are the leading UK charity focusing on all muscle disease. They are dedicated to improving the lives of all children and adults affected by muscle disease.

As many of you may know untill I signed up to my 10 k and now 1/2 marathon I hated running and much preferred swimming so this will be a gig challenge for me to be runing over 13 miles.  I am running two -  three mornings a week before work  2- 5 mile runs and then completing my long runs on the weekends. My longest run has been 11 miles.
