Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have decided to enter the Birmingham Bupa Great Run this year on Sunday 21st October, running isn't usually 'my thing' but I’ve decided to enter it and see if I was up for the challenge.  I have been training since the beginning of the year and try to run every day.

Most recently I managed to complete the 10K Sutton Run at the beginning of July and managed to complete this within 54 minutes, which I have been told is very good!  But now there is real pressure for me to complete the 13 miles in around 2 hours eek !!

After thinking about which charity to use I figured that it would be a great idea for my money to go towards the great work the National Life After Stroke Centre in Bromsgrove do and most recently we have recently raised money for them with the great B2B cycle ride which some of my colleagues took part in over a 24 hour period.

This money will go towards the refurbishment of the national information service and helpline areas in order to respond to over 30,000 requests per year.

So please if you can dig as deep as you can and support me and this very good cause in raising as much money for them as we can.
