Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

After years of telling everyone (including myself) that I am not made for running, I do wonder if my love of a challenge has gone a step too far! 

RDA is a really amazing charity, providing therapy, achievement and enjoyment to 28,000 riders and drivers across the UK annually. In RDA we say "it's what you CAN do that counts" and I see many disabled riders and drivers who strive over adversity, so my challenge is small in comparison.

I now have months of training through the winter.  I know there will be dark, cold, wet training sessions needed to transform me from a complete non-runner to someone ready to face the 26.2 miles and take my place on 26th April. With a serious amount of determination and your support I know I CAN do this.

I have 2 goals......to raise the funds pledged to RDA and to enjoy the experience of getting to the finish line in time to get a medal!
