I am (the) Annabelle from Annabelle's Challenge. I am doing the bike ride this year with my dad Jared who set up the charity and Christina who is close to me and my family and works for the charity. I really wanted to do 19 miles but because of my condition I can't push myself too hard so we have to do it over two days and have lots of breaks. I am excited to do something for the charity but I'm mainly excited about the ice cream at the end. 

Annabelle's Challenge is the leading charity for vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome in the UK. At the heart of the charity is Annabelle, a brave little girl from Bury who is the inspiration behind our challenge to raise awareness and support for patients and families affected by vascular EDS. Vascular EDS is a life threatening connective tissue disorder that affects all tissues, arteries and internal organs making them extremely fragile. Patients are at risk of sudden arterial or organ rupture.
