So after a few runs we decided that it would be a good idea to run the Colchester Half Marathon. Now we are both good cross country runners but not really done much road running.
So to help us push ourselves out of our comfort zone we have made the decision to run it for the A Company, Suffolk Army Cadet Force Charity of the year East Anglian Air Ambulance.


Since our launch in 2000 we have attended over 20,000 lifesaving missions, touching the lives of many thousands of people. Read on to find out more about the East Anglian Air Ambulance.Our crew comprises specialist prehospital doctors and critical-care paramedics, operating out of two high-tech helicopters from 07:00 until 19:00 from our Norwich base and from 07:00 until 01:30 from our Cambridge base. We were the first air ambulance in the country to attend helicopter emergency medical incidents in the hours of darkness to unknown and unlit.
