Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I first started running five years ago having watched my daughter take part in charity runs. In my first event I walked most of the route in the pouring rain, got literally soaked to the skin but really enjoyed it. I had the bug! I went on to enter the Great North Run to celebrate my 60th birthday.
Following my retirement I started volunteering at Springboard after reading about their work in the local press. I soon realised how important their facilities are for children with additional needs and their families. I now run regularly with Clevedon Ladies Running Group and try to take part in one charity run a year, this year choosing to run for Springboard in the Bupa London 10,000 run on 27 May.
