One of my best and most dearest friends and Emily’s wonderful Godmum has recently been diagnosed with a Grade 4 terminal brain tumour. It’s been devastating for her, her family and friends. No one expects to turn 40 and be told your life is being cut short. Vicki has been nothing short of remarkable with her bravery, positivity and determination and I’m so very proud of her (please read her story 🙏).

With all this in mind I’ve just decided to take on The Great South Run for the third time with my lovely friend and running buddy, Michelle. Despite having run it before a few years ago, we have tended to stick to 8km distances when running so now need to work on doubling that amount in a short amount of time (5 weeks to be precise 🫣)! 

Any support helping to raise much needed  funds for The Brain Tumour Charity would be so appreciated and will all feed into Vicki’s goal of reaching and hopefully smashing 10K for this charity. When you read the statistics, you’ll realise why any amount, is so very needed.
