Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running the London Marathon in April 2014. If I do it, it will fulfil a life-long ambition at the ripe old age of 46 - I realised it wasn't going to get any easier so I needed to get on with it! I've run two half-marathons before, and they were tough. So really hoping I can get the training in with my dog, Cinders, and go the distance. 

I've decided to run for Oxfam as a huge admirer of the amazing work they do all around the world, from Syria to Kenya to the Philippines. Having lived in Africa for six years of my life, I'm very conscious of how lucky we are as a family, and want to support Oxfam's brilliant programmes to tackle poverty and support health and education around the world.
