So it’s finally here!
Today I’m running my first marathon (found out 12 days ago that I couldn’t run a half-marathon at the Manchester Marathon) – though somewhat trepidated (wish that was a word), I’m excited!

Full details in the video above. Please watch, I need all the help I can get.

I’m thrilled to say the end is sight!! Woohoo!
Here’s the collage of run stats – just one block to add!
It’s been an intense week! Yesterday, I was at three different events between 9:30am and 2pm, and they were all fantastic in their own way, especially the long awaited Fund Her North launch which I’m involved with. That was something special indeed.
I had an eye on the weather all day though as I knew I had Run #8 of my 10 x 10km challenge scheduled.
I’m thrilled to say I completed it – a little bleary-eyed as you can see from the ‘after’ video below.
Continue readingI set myself a challenge to run 10km ten times in just under 3 weeks to raise much needed funds for an incredible cause and since my first blog post on 2 October I’ve managed to complete 7 runs, woohoo!
The deadline is this Saturday 17 October, there’s three 10km runs left to do and I’m going to be blogging my way to the end!
I’m doing this challenge to raise £5000 to help transform lives from backgrounds of drug and alcohol addiction through the amazing Global Run 4 Hope campaign.
Will you sponsor me, please? Please kindly donate what you can – all funds go directly to the charity.
Thank you. Together we can make a massive difference!
