On 14th April 2019 I am taking on the challenge of running a marathon to raise money for the charity DASH. Over the last six years I have been on a running journey. I have gone from non-runner to half marathon runner and running a marathon is the next step for me. However, this will be a massive challenge, I was not born a natural runner and this will take every piece of willpower that I have.
DASH are amazing, they make a difference to peoples lives in so many ways. The schemes that DASH run not only give families much needed respite but also help the young people supported grow as individuals. This allows them to build their confidence, self-esteem, independent living skills and gives them the opportunity to develop friendships.
So please support not only my journey but also that of the young people and families that DASH support by giving generously and allowing DASH to continue with the excellent work that they do.
THANK YOU XX
You can do it, Alexis.
Good luck!
Once again I have been unable to run the marathon - this time due to Covid - 19 and the race being rescheduled. The marathon will now be on 27th September 2020 - fingers crossed.
Good luck Alexis x
