If you know me, you already know that running is well out of my comfort zone and I'm more of a feet-up-and-crochet sort of a girl! But this year I am challenging myself to get fit enough to run 5k in an effort to raise funds for Cancer Research - a disease which has affected too many of us personally. So I am running this for myself, my family, friends and all those affected. This girl can! (Or will... after a bit more training... wish me luck!)

Any thing you can give to help me reach my target will be much appreciated. Thank you!

Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 5k to raise money and save lives.

1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work, so please sponsor me now.
