Hi fitness friends...

Well, that's it... My big running fundraising challenge page is live and ready for you to look at and donate if you feel like it. I am raising money for 4 different charities close to my heart and really want to make a difference. I am signed up to run another 3 events as 2 have already been & gone but also thinking of adding another possible 1 or 2... Please help me smash my target by sponsoring me... :) Even £1 will mean the world to me & my charities. Thanks so much! Big mwah xxx

Instead of giving myself reasons why I can’t, I give myself reasons why I can!!!....

I decided to run the following 5 events this year in aid of 4 fantastic charities. Running is a passion and I truly love the feeling of escapism it gives me when I’m outside in the fresh air. I took up running 2 years ago and have not looked back since. I’m now so pleased to be committed to running a half marathon and the Great South 10 miles run in a few month time. This year has been a challenge as the weather has not been kind but cold, rainy, icy, muddy and windy conditions have not stopped me and I hope that my training efforts will not be in vain and that you can all help me raise money to support my chosen charities. 3 of them are in support of Cancer Research, Breast Cancer Campaign & Macmillan Cancer Support and the 4th is Anna’s Challenges which is a charity (set up by a friend of mine) dedicated to raising funds and awareness for children with Cystic Fibrosis. These charities are fantastic and doing such a wonderful job in helping, supporting & raising awareness but without our support, they can’t so please help me help them! We all have a family member, close friend or somebody we simply know that suffers with Cancer or Cystic Fibrosis and this is something I can’t help but my charities of choice can, are and will…

Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor me and donations will be quickly processed and passed to charities. Virgin Money Giving is a not a profit organization and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this. All your donations will simply be split between all 4 charities equally so they all get a share of your kind heart!

Thank you so much :)
