Hello My Lovelies!

Thanks for checking out my Just giving Page!

I got a little bit over excited last year and managed to book myself on to a few little runs over the up coming year and seeing as everyone around me are utter superstars I thought I might as well put them to good use. So for 2016 I have chosen to try and raise money for DIABETES UK in support of some utterly brilliant people in my life who have diabetes and to also show support to a friend who is fundraising in memory of a dear friend whom he tragically lost last year to this life threatening disease. 

There are currently 4 million people in the UK living with diabetes, including an estimated 549,000 people who have Type 2 diabetes but do not know it. A further 11.5 million people in the UK are at increased risk of getting Type 2 diabetes.  There is no known cure however, through development in medicine and research it can be managed very successfully.  Tragically there are still many who die from never being diagnosed. 

One way of controlling or reducing the risk of diabetes is through exercise so here's where I do the exercise bit...

7th May - Rat Race Dirty Weekend- 20 mile Obstacle Race-DONE!

28th May- Spartan Super- 13+km Obstacle Race-DONE!

30th May-London 10k road race DONE!
