Sarah takes on the Big Half

My name is Sarah and I'm a 50-something Mum of two teenage daughters. I've been a registered childminder for 8 years. My setting, Sarah's Little Stars, is based in Charlton, where I have lived for 25 years.

I joined the Large and Legging It group in September 2017, having not really done much running before. Since then I have taken part in two 10k runs and am now training for the Big Half - a prospect which is pretty daunting! However, I have had so much support and encouragement from Tara, one of the Big Red Bus Club's volunteers and the Large and Legging It running coach, that I reckon I can actually do it! This is therefore a personal challenge for me, but I also hope to raise some much-needed funds for the BRBC, which is run by volunteers and makes such a difference to families in Charlton.
