I am running the half marathon in memory of my beautiful friend, Becki Kaye. She suffered from this horrific disease at such a young age and was taken from us only 2 weeks after her 17th birthday. Becki was a kind, intelligent girl, a passionate dancer, a truly special friend to many. Her smile could light up a room and she had so much more to offer the world. She is loved, remembered and missed by everyone who was lucky enough to have met her, but noone has felt this tragic loss like her Mum, Dad and two younger brothers.

I want to run this half marathon to raise money for Meningitis Research Foundation so that other people, who suffer like Becki did, may have a better chance of survival, and so that their family and friends have the support and help they need!
