I'm running the Ipswich Half Marathon 2023 for Families Together Suffolk .....

After attending the local baby group run for free for the local community by Families Together Suffolk I’ve decided to challenge myself by running my first half marathon to raise money for them so they can continue to empower families to provide a strong foundation for their child’s future. 

I’ve always wanted to run a half marathon but have never had the courage to give one ago. Whilst I have run previously (mainly the odd 5K) following a bereavement in 2021 I fell out of love with running  and have only recently decided to attempt to make my running comeback, having re-completed the beginners course with my local running group in June. This is going to be a big challenge but I’m already enjoying getting my trainers back on 🏃‍♀️
