Story

Hey guys!

Im running the Great North Run in september for Leonard Cheshire Disability and need to raise £350.00 by taking part in this 13 mile run =O

Now for those of you that know me well, me being the typical lazy student  this seems like a daunting task for the girl who thinks that walking the less than one mile to Sainsburys is bare effort and my exercise for a month! (I'm not even joking :S). But as the saying goes, " It's all for a good cause" and it certainly is! Leonard Cheshire Disability strives to improve the lives of those people which have a disability and change attitudes towards people with disabilities. The way in which the funds recieved will be used by leonard cheshire disability involve the improvement of: 

Care homes, the support disabled people and the families recieve ,  day services, resource centres, rehabilitation, respite care, and training and assistance in education and employment.

So basically a brilliant cause! and well worth running 13 miles for and all the effort ! :D

So come on people, anything you can spare would be greatly appreciated and mean so much! 

I will keep my progress updated on here...which so far is that i can run 4 miles…only 9 miles to go : /

I now can run 5 miles woo ! ... and now 6 :D 

I hope to increase my runs by a mile each week. 

THANK YOU for any donations and all your support!
