On 27th September I will be running Robin Hood Half Marathon ( or equivalent) to support Maggies Centre in Nottingham.... for anyone that doesn’t know me too well I don’t enjoy running!! I started it one day, hate every minute but carry on! ( I’ve always been bad at sports and although I’m not good at running as it’s a solo sport so no one else knows ha!)
And to get my fundraising kicked off I am starting with an extra challenge as part of the 2.6 challenge. On Sunday 26th April I ran 2.6 miles, 2.6 times (5.76 miles) I will be following this with either:
- A 2.6 mile run
- 260 squats
- Or
- 26 minute HIIT
Maggie’s is an incredible centre offering a place for anyone affected by cancer, from workshops, counselling sessions, help with benefit claiming or just somewhere to sit and have a cup of tea!
My family, like many others, has been affected by cancer and I wanted to do my part to support charities doing their bit to help. I have done many runs in aid of MacMillan and Cancer Research and a few years ago came across Maggies, since then I have been volunteering and helping raising funds to keep the centre doors open. I love supporting maggies as you can see the difference you are making and see the immediate positive impact it has on the people that need the support of the centre
I would love it if you could support me and donate to this wonderful charity!
P.s Maggies is a nationwide charity so if you or someone you care about if affected by cancer, find your nearest centre and drop in... it really is a warm and welcoming place! https://www.maggies.org/our-centres/
