Olá friends and family,

I will be running my first Half Marathon on the 9th October 22, at Royal Parks event in London! As some of you know I've been running for quite a while, even though I'm not super fast and I haven't ran further than 10km before.  So I'm very excited about this new challenge!  You can follow my training by checking my profile on Strava. (https://www.strava.com/athletes/41836192)

I decided to support SUDC UK charity for this challenge and I would really appreciate your help with raising money for it. It doesn't matter the amount, 1 pound would already be of great help!

Last year, one of Laura's (my sister in law, which is also running at this event with me) close friends lost their child for SUDC and I hope that by helping this charity we can help sharing awareness. You can read a bit more about it below.

Thanks a lot! Muito obrigada!

SUDC UK is a registered, national charity dedicated to raising awareness, funding research and supporting families affected by Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC).     SUDC is the sudden and unexpected death of a child aged 1-18 years where the cause of death remains unexplained after a thorough investigation. 40 children are affected every year in the UK, more than young child deaths due to traffic accidents, fires or drowning and comparable to 1-2 seemingly healthy children dying every fortnight. Thank you for your support.
