Story
On October 12th at 10.30am (I hope it's not too cold) I will be running the Petts Wood 10k (which is just over 6.2 miles, yes I know, I must be mad) to raise funds for Second Chance Animal Rescue in Crockenhill.
Second Chance is a local animal rescue that is run by volunteers and survives solely on donations made by the public, I read into what they do and decided thought that I could help.
