Story
Hi,
So here we go again!
My sister Rachel passed away at the end of 2016, this came as shock to us all as over the years Rachel had always seemed fine to many. For me there was times over the years when things weren't going well, but Rachel defied doctors again and again and she was always my big sister whenever I needed her!
If last year wasn't enough:
1. Allendale Challenge - 26 Mile Walk
2. Edinburgh Half Marathon
3. 12 Mile Tough Mudder
4. 10 Mile Total Warrior
5. Cycle the Coast to Coast in 1 day (130+ Miles) – August Bank Holiday
6. Great North Run – 9th September
7. Kielder Run Bike Run – 26 Miles Duathlon (6th October)
8. Kielder Marathon – 26 Miles (7th October)
9. Sky Diving – TBA
10. Walk Hadrian's Wall - 88 Miles in 2 days
11. Rat Race Dirty Weekender -20 Mile Obstacle Corse
12. 10K Born Survivor
There will be a few other events like a comedy night and quiz night though dates still to be confirmed :)
I welcome suggestions for additional events and anyone who wants
get involved is welcome. The more people the better!
The target is no small thing, though it costs a great deal to run each Maggie's Centre and it is a charity which helps me and played a small part in the later moments of Rachel's life.
The support Maggie's gives is free to all and it has been amazing so I
couldn't think of a better charity to do all this for!
If there's one thing I’ve always admired about my sister was her resilience to crack on keep being herself, no matter what she was going through.
I know the target is a way off, but if my sister could always keep
going and always smiling no matter what she was going through, I'm sure I can manage a little running!
Your support and donations are be greatly appreciated!
We've raised £20K so only £30K to go!
Best Regards
Adam
