Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

Having only recently taken up running as a means of maintaining a 'certain level' of fitness (having been a couch potato for a number of years now), I managed to reach the heights of 5K running late last year. Having not undertaken a 10K race since I was 16 (which doesn't bear thinking about!), I thought it was time to push myself a bit and try my hand at a 10K race, hence signing up for the Bupa Manchester 10K race in May.

After signing up for the event, I was asked whether I would be willing to consider running on behalf of one of the approved sponsors. Having looked through the list of sponsors, I felt that representing Christies Hospital (i.e. 'The Christie') would give me the chance to give something back (as both of my parents have benefitted from services they provide) and it would also be something that many people could relate to; being a local cause which carries out invaluable work in the research, treatment, care and support of cancer sufferers in the North West.

If you would like to find out more information about the services that 'The Christie' offer, please log onto the following website: http://www.christie.nhs.uk/

In return for my efforts (and the likely leg pain I will suffer after the event!) I'm looking for sponsorship for a very worthwhile cause. Anything you can donate will be greatly appreciated.
