On the 25th April this year, whilst most (well normal people anyway!) will be enjoying a relaxing Sunday morning I will be pounding 26.2 miles of London's pavements in a quest to complete this years London Marathon!  This is a challenge I have thought about for a few years now, but this is the year I have decided to test my body (and mind!) to the limit. 

I will be running to raise money for a fantastic charity, The Stroke Association.  This is a cause that is very close to my heart as a close family friend suffered a stroke 2 years ago.  With her extreme courage and determination she is continuing her journey to recovery, providing inspiration to all around her. 

Every year an estimated 150,000 people in the suffer a stroke, that is one person every 5 minutes, so by the time you have finished reading this information and donating, 2 people may have died from a stroke.  It is the 3rd biggest killer and the leading cause of severe disability in the .  Anyone can be affected, including children and even babies, at anytime, without warning.  The Stroke Association is the only national charity solely concerned with helping everyone affected by the stroke.  Funds are used to conduct research in improving stroke prevention, treatment and rehabilitation as well as directly helping stroke patients and their families.

I hope to raise as much as possible for this worthy cause.  Please give generously no matter how large or small, every little will make a difference to someone.

Please come and support me on the day, I will be the one amongst the thousands of others that has given up my Sunday morning (not to mention the 8 months of training!!!!!!!)

Lots of Love, Natalie  xxx
