Story
On Sunday 23rd February I will be running my first ever
half marathon.
I always loved the idea of being able to say I had managed a run
like this and have finally plucked up the courage!
EDIT 23/2/20... I did it!! See photo for proof!
Thank you to everyone who came to support me, my lovely boys and hubby! Thank you to all who sponsored me too... smashed my goal! Still time to donate while my feet are throbbing! (might need some reflexology Anne?)
Well done and thank you from William's Fund!
Read on for Story... Although I entered for a personal challenge I would love to use
this opportunity to raise money for a good cause, and for this reason I have chosen to support William's Fund.
Please see: www.williamsfund.co.uk and www.facebook.com/williamsfund
I first met Johanna, the founder of William's Fund when my eldest
son Jack (who is now 13) was 4 months old. She was teaching baby swimming classes and taught Jack as well as then teaching his two younger brothers Harry and Daniel. As all three boys went on to become swimmers for Amersham Swimming Club she obviously got them started on the right track!
Through Johanna I learnt all about Williams Fund and the amazing research they support into children’s cancer. Williams Fund is a fantastic charity and it is great to be able to support a local charity where I know every penny I can raise will go directly to the research and not to any administration costs.
If you would be willing to donate any amount I would be so grateful and appreciate all of your support.
Please think of me at 10am on Sunday 23rd February and send me lots of positive vibes and prayers – I need all the help I can get!
