Hi Guys,

I DID IT, AND HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE DOING SO, PLEASE DIG DEEP AND SPONSOR ME AND HELP FINDING A CURE FOR CANCER :) MY TIME WAS 2:48:07 HOPE YOU CAN ALL DIG DEEP :)

I will be running in the Great North Run on 18th September this year (yes i know im mad) but it is for a fantastic cause. I am running on behalf of Breakthrough Breast Cancer and this is a charity that is very close to not only to myself but to to all my family.

 

In Decemeber 2010 Judith Charlton (my mum) was diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time, this came as a great shock to all of the family but luckily she is a tough lady to crumble and again is on the mend which we are all really thankful for :).

 

It is sad but true that 1 in 9 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point in their lives and nearly 46,000 women and 300 men are diagnosed ever year with nearly 1,000 women who lose their lives to the disease every month. Breakthrough Breast Cancer is a pioneering charity saving lives and changing futures, campaigning and educating and removing the fear of breast cancer for good.

 

I hope you will all give generously to this fantastic charity and support me in running the 13 mile half marathon :) if anyone has any songs that they want to dedicate to my training and the final run feel free to leave me a note and i will get them on my iPod, this will keep me going motivate me and get me across that finish line :)

Thank You (in Advance) for all your support

Nicola
