Yes people...I'm running a Marathon! (It's also a gold bond place) I know you must be as astounded as I am! I was so determined to get in this year that I shed at tear when I got my gold bond letter! It was like winning Willy Wonka's golden ticket... but better! 

I'm running for hearing dogs for the deaf who are a national charity who train beautiful dogs to alert deaf people to important sounds and danger signals. These dogs offer greater independence, confidence and companionship to deaf people. What's better again is that I get to meet these amazing animals, the excitement is too much!! And raising money for this charity would be an honour.  

The furthest I've ever realistically ran... in my life is probably up a staircase... badly... so completing 26 miles and 385 yards will be a life time achievement and a shock to every person who knows me!! 

I would be eternally grateful for any support of sponsorship towards my 2k goal for my charity. I'll be attempting pub quiz events and cup cakes mornings to reach my target!   

I will make sure to update this page with pictures of me running in the baltic rain, hail and snow over the next few months. I've already begun running 2-3 evenings a week in the sub zero temps! And I actually love it! It's actually quite liberating! 

My motto being... Go hard or go home!! Jessica Ennis better watch out!! 

Thanks for visiting my page too, I really appreciate it. 

And always remember to... live the disco dream!!

Woo woo!!
