Not too long ago I ran my first Half Marathon for Macmillan, and when I finished I had a lot of people saying "Marathon next?" to which my reply was always a resounding "No.". But then I stupidly started running with Charlotte and we egged each other on to sign up for the 2023 London Marathon, and while we were at it we decided to drag Demi down with us...a couple of months later and now all three of us are running our first marathon on the 23rd April 2023!
We all have our different motivations for running and mine is to challenge myself and to raise money for Macmillan; a brilliant charity who helped my amazing mum through her Cancer diagnosis back in 2019. Thankfully she had the all clear but I know how much she benefitted from the support Macmillan gave her throughout her treatment and beyond, and so I want to support the work that Macmillan do for so many other families in whatever way I can. So thank you in advance for supporting my fundraising :)
Macmillan gives people with cancer everything they’ve got. If you’re diagnosed, your worries are Macmillan’s worries. Macmillan’s doing whatever it takes. But without your help, Macmillan can’t support everyone who needs them. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and secure. Your details are safe, JustGiving - they'll never sell them or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs.
