Approximately 2 years ago I decided to start running. Initially it was to do the race for life 5k but I decided that I wanted to keep running so I set myself goals/ targets. 5k felt like a good distance and I never envisaged doing anything more than that. But, and it is a big but, I like a challenge. I did a couple of 10k races last summer, fun but again said I would never do longer distances. In the late autumn I started to believe I could do more and once the seed was sown there was no looking back. Half Marathon it was!

I decided to run it for Alzheimer Dementia Support "ADS". This is a charity that means a lot to me. I am the Consultant in the memory clinic in Maidenhead and lots of my patients and their families use this charity. They provide a wide variety of services from drop in groups, lunch clubs, befrienders, short holidays and so much more. They are an amazing group of people providing an invaluable service to the local community. Every penny they raise goes to support local services.

Please help to support them by sponsoring me to do this half marathon. Thank you so much.
