I first started running over 30 years ago but had to cut back on my training after the birth of my beautiful triplets 26 years ago.

I started back again only a few years ago with a goal of being able to run the London Marathon. I've applied quite a few times but never got through but this year I was successful in getting a club place through Rugby  & Northampton Athletics Club.

I'm now 61 years old so I don't think I'll be setting any records but I am determined to finish!!

As my friends and family know I am deaf (cochlear implant in right ear/hearing aid in left) so I decided to run for Sound Seekers,  a charity who help improve the lives of thousands of people with hearing loss  in some of the poorest communities in the world - currently with projects in Cameroon, Malawi, Sierra Leone, The Gambia and Zambia

Please help me to raise as much as possible to support the work of this great charity..
