Story

Throughout 2021 I am doing a virtual Lands End to John O’Groats distance challenge. This will involve me running a total of 1,083miles/1,743km across the year. Although this might not seem like the biggest of my past challenges, fitting it around returning to work full time and juggling a baby will definitely make it a BIG challenge for me! 🤞🏼

I am doing this challenge in order to raise money for Ward 216 at the Royal Stoke Hospital, the Children’s Ward. In July 2020 we had our little boy Harry 👶🏻 and unfortunately he had to spend almost a week receiving expert care from the fantastic doctors, nurses and consultants on the ward 🙌🏼. I want to repay their hard work supporting little ones at their most vulnerable, and the kindness and compassion they showed to us parents, by raising vital funds for the Ward. 💰

This last year has been a tough year for everyone, if you’re able to donate, even just a pound of two, or simply send a message a good luck I would be eternally grateful ❤️

I’ll be doing a mixture of casual running from home , 10k races and the Stafford Half Marathon (permitting they go ahead!) and I’ll keep you all updated regularly with my progress and miles completed ! 🏃🏻‍♀️
