So after saying to myself I would never run another half marathon again.... here I am! and although I already have 1 half marathon under my belt, it definitely doesn't make it any less daunting than last year! Ahhhh

Last year's run was probably the most mentally and physically challenging event I have ever participated in! For someone who had never run further than 5k, the training was hard and I honestly thought I would not be able to do it.

When the opportunity came up to run for Leonard Cheshire again this year, how could I say no? So the trainers came back out and the training began... I am determined to beat last years' time of 2hours 27minutes.
