Story

My wonderful mother died suddenly four years ago this month of a catastrophic brain haemorrhage.  For too many years she lived with uncontrolled high blood pressure and eventually this took its toll.  I have not met anyone as kind and thoughtful, selfless and loving and I miss her every day.  

I never thought I could run, let alone enjoy it…but two years ago, thinking of my mother, I decided I needed to get my heart in as good a condition as possible.  With incredible encouragement from the family; particularly my three girls, I have reached a point when this run, (though scary), is possible.  I will be running with Ellie and Eliza (Amy being on injury time out), but supported by all the family, and I would really appreciate your support to help me raise money to help prevent heart and circulatory disease.

I will be thinking of my dear mother on the run; her huge heart and patience; always ready with a hug, always ready with a story, always calm.  She left us too early, and I hope in the future there will be more effective treatment to help people with her condition.

Thank you.
