On October 2nd I will be running 26.2 miles for Crohn's & Colitis UK in the London Marathon; representing a charity that has become very close to my heart. Since meeting Shaun, I soon realised how much Crohn's affects your everyday life and how invaluable the charity is in raising awareness surrounding this disease. 

There are family members and friends who also suffer from Crohn's & Colitis and therefore I feel that it is a condition suffered unnoticed to many, and raising money is an integral part for me to aid research and support the charity.  

For those of you that don't know me, I am not a runner. I struggle with running 2 miles, let alone 26. This will be my biggest challenge to date, but one that I am determined to do for such an amazing charity. 

Any donation will be truly appreciated to reach my £2,500 target! 

Let the training commence!
