Story

As it approaches a year since we lost our precious Mum to Breast Cancer I was thinking about ways to raise money to support a charity close to Mum's heart. For the past 17 years Mum has been supporting Breast Cancer Now with various events and I feel like it's my turn to take the baton on her behalf.

If you know me personally you will be aware that I am not a natural runner or indeed natural in any kind of fitness!!  However I have decided to train and run a 5k in memory of Mum to mark the 1st year of Mum's passing. I wanted to do something that would be a huge personal challenge with the hope that family and friends will support me and donate to this charity which is so important to us as a family.

I have signed up to run the Alton Towers 5K Run on November 13th 2021 and have 14 weeks to train from unfit non runner to able to stumble around 5k!!!

Thank you for taking the time to read this - Lets try and raise as much money as possible to help the amazing work Breast Cancer Now do in loving memory of Mum.
