Story

5 years ago I raised over £1000 running for the Horse Trust in memory of my beloved Mum who passed away unexpectedly in 2010. I always promised myself (and the Horse Trust) that I would do a different event someday to raise further funds for this great cause. Here I am, one house move, two children and a catnapping later. I am running the Yorkshire Marathon which is going to be a huge challenge both mentally and physically. The closer I get to the start date, the more I realize the size of the challenge ahead. I'm not backing down however and will give it my best shot. My target first and foremost is to complete and raise £500 for the charity. If I could finish under 4 and a half hours I would be very happy when I crash into bed that night. Every donation is gratefully received and thank you in advance.
