Before I decided to take part in the Great North Run, I would probably only be seen running for a bus or to the pub before last orders!  So I decided that before I turned 25, a half marathon would be the perfect challenge... 

I am raising money for the Alzheimer's Society as it provides invaluable support for those suffering from Alzheimers and their families  It also helps to fund research projects and promotes a greater public understanding of dementia.  Over 800,000 people in the UK suffer from dementia and the care they provide for those affected is incredible - so if you can help me to raise as much money as possible - that would be AMAZING!

Thank you very much for your support!
