I've spent the last year committed to becoming a healthier and better me and discovered that my new found healthy lifestyle has made me feel better, work better, and accomplish more.  Running a marathon was always a distant dream but I've slowly accepted that with enough hard work and dedication that this dream could be a reality.  2017 becomes the year that I accomplish this goal by running in the Amsterdam Marathon.  Why Amsterdam?  Well for starters it's flat and and also a city I love and feel connected to.  To help push me on those days I need a little motivation I have decided to run not only for me but for the needy animals at Foal Farm.  I will personally donate £10 a week during my next 18 weeks of training and would appreciate any donation no matter how small to keep me motivated and to ultimately reach my goal of £500 to help Foal Farm help animals in need. 

Last Race: Richmond 10 Mile (4 June) 1:29:06
