I've thought about doing a Race for Life before, but this year I am and I never thought it would be  in memory of my best friend Anne-Marie Dwyer. She died on Christmas morning, 9 months after being diagnosed with cancer.

If you knew her, you loved her. I miss her like crazy every day.

My Justgiving page is linked to the 'Anne-Marie's Fatties' page too, where we hope to link all her friends doing this Race for life together. Our common memory of her, is we will have been on a diet with her or eaten cake with her at one time or another!

Please,  please, please,  join the fight by digging deep and sponsoring me - it's quick, easy and totally secure.

Events like this are vital in funding Cancer Research UK's life-saving work into preventing, diagnosing and treating cancer. By sponsoring me, we can unite and create an army that cancer can't ignore. By sponsoring me, we will beat cancer sooner.

Don't forget to add Gift Aid

Sponsor me now, and help me show cancer that hell hath no fury like a woman in pink.
