Hello wonderful people!
This week I am starting to train to be able to run 26.2 miles by 21st April next year. Exciting stuff.
I realise running the Marathon is not something that appeals to many people, I have definitely got some confusing looks from people I've told about it! Still, for me it's been a dream for about 4-5 years now and to have finally secured a place is just, well, joyous. I am so pleased to be able to be running for Amnesty International, I am a passionate supporter of the work that they do and am overjoyed that by running for them I can raise awareness for the organisation as well as funds.
I hope to use this blog mainly to keep everyone updated with how training is going and how far I've upped the mileage! But I'd also like to use it as a way of keeping in touch with everyone who has donated/ knows me, to explain what I'm up to, why I run and also to highlight some of what Amnesty does. Hopefully it'll be a bit more insightful into who I am and what I'm about, especially while I'm here in Oxford.
Lots of love and happy Monday! Xx
