A few years ago one of my friends discovered, as unfortunately so many do, that she had cancer. Despite the challenges involved in having treatment Laura did the incredible thing of putting her time and effort, and talents (and a lot of them) into setting up an organisation to help support people going through cancer like her. This organisation, We Get It, now provides support for a huge number of people, and in many different ways.
Laura and her team are so dynamic and are constantly evolving to meet the needs of the community so they can help more people.
What We Get it has achieved so far is inspirational but obviously to continue to develop it needs funding so I decided to run London marathon to do my little bit to help.
Running, and training for, a marathon right now has been a challenge. I gave birth to my little girl less than 12 months ago and so letting my body recover from that and get back into running has been tough. However I have managed to squeeze in training runs around breastfeeding and holidays to tropical climates and now training is going better than expected. So I am excited for the big day 😀.
