Hastings Half Marathon 2010

January 5th, 2010

This year I am finally getting around to running my first (half) marathon in Hastings. I have chosen to use it as an excuse to raise money for Women’s Aid, for a couple of reasons. Firstly, a dear friend of mine and her children have been affected by domestic violence and have had a tough time the past few months trying to rebuild their lives. The second reason is that my sister adopted some children just over a year ago now, their birth mother had also been through a rough life, but wasn’t as fortunate.

I don’t publicly raise money for charities, but this is an exception as it is close to my heart, and hence anything you can give will be appreciated far more than usual. The monies will help repay the invaluable support my friend has received in protecting & relocating her and the kids, and make sure that it remains available for other people in need.

Donations can be sent via my ‘Just Giving’ page.

Also please keep up to date with my progress - Remember to look/make comments too!
