Story

Hi,

I've been putting off setting up my JustGiving page.  This is because as some of you will know, since entering this race last October (when I was running well), I have had lots of injury niggles, 3 months out from ingrown toenail/infection and extremely painful part removal of toenails (ouch/yuck/traumatised) then a lovely 2 week holiday......so training hasn't really been going to plan! I am now getting back into my running the last 3/4 weeks(!) and hoping to run 7miles this weekend (18/09).  This will be the first time I have run in such a massive race, it will be strange running with 'thousands' .

It breaks my heart to know cruelty and suffering to animals still happens in today's times and often as a 'sport' (not because the animal is killing farm livestock etc.. but for fun), I can't even write in detail what happens as it is so upsetting and it isn't just fox hunting.  If it wasn't for charities like League Against Cruel Sports, who monitor and expose these activities/groups at every opportunity then these animals would have completely no voice at all.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
