Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Having had 2 babies in the last 3 years I have not had much time for exercising. I decided 2011 was the year to get fit. However I needed a goal to get me out of the house and doing something. My goal is to run the Connemara half marathon, near Galway in April. This marathon is fairly small and definitely unknown. It winds itself through the beautiful hills of Galway. There are only 3,300 participants and there are only 2 registered charities, so I decided to raise money for my own chosen charity, CLIC Sargent for children with cancer. 

Once you have had babies, anything that may affect them breaks your heart. Having also witnessed the horrors of cancer, we lost my mother-in-law to cancer, I decided to put the two together and raise money for a charity whose web site brought tears to my eyes. 

I hope you feel my event worthy of a donation, certainly anything you donate will be greatly received and will contribute to helping children and their families battle this horrible disease

Thank you

Andie
