I am running the London Half Marathon 2020 for Guide Dogs, because I love to run, but more importantly I truly value the companionship and support that dogs bring in our lives. I have had a dog as a companion all my life and I still cherish and miss each one of them. I am still heartbroken from the loss of my last 2 dogs. However, a Guide Dog is so much more than just a companion, it literally is an access to the world for the those who are visibly challenged. This is why I am raising money for the Guide Dogs Charity, to give an opportunity for a young puppy to be a lifelong support and companion for someone less fortunate. I also do this in memory of my puppies Kippy and Scooby who I miss so much. Please help me raise money for this wonderful cause, every little bit helps.
