Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
This marathon event is a first for me. I have done three half marathons to date and even hobbled my way round The Grizzly (19 gruelling hilly miles - see cover pic) in 2019. But a marathon... (eek!) and a hilly coastal path one at that...but I am getting myself ready and I love a challenge! Training is well underway...(but getting harder as I try to clock up the miles - luckily I have a fab training buddy who is also doing the event!)
I am running these 26.2 miles for the women of Trevi*, who are incredible in their resolve and drive to change. This phenomenal charity works closely with women in recovery to support them to 'believe and achieve'. I hope to focus this fundraising effort specifically to support the projects they do around 'food' and 'healthy eating' with the women.
THANK YOU for supporting me - every little bit will help me get through my gruelling marathon training programme, but more importantly will lead to essential support for these amazing women.
*Trevi is a nationally award-winning women’s and children’s charity based in South West England. They provide safe and nurturing spaces for women in recovery to heal, grow and thrive. Their vision is for a society where all women in recovery can access good quality, psychologically informed, gender-based interventions without apology. In the 27 years they have been operating, they have helped transform the lives of thousands of women and their children. From rehab and health to housing and employment, they help any woman in recovery move from “surviving” to “thriving”. https://trevi.org.uk/
