Please help me help them by giving whatever you can using the 'donate' button. The more people that know about ABF The Soldiers' Charity, the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family.

My Updates
Week 4
Week 4Rough week with some tired legs and a strained muscle meaning an added rest day and some maybe not as accurate sessions this week but sticking to around 23miles for the week. Definitely Building some mental resilience this week definitely only makes me stronger for manchester. Definitely the toughest week with the muscle strain and pushing through some negative thoughts.
But a massive thank you to my amazing family for their support and my amazing coach and partner Morgan Thompson for the reassurance telling me to trust the process and making me work hard 🥰.
But back at it tomorrow feeling tones better gotta love the grind and keep pushing.
If you want to help me on my way to my first half marathon and first run for charity I would be super greatful for any donations using the link bellow and any shares of this post to spread the word about my progress and this amazing charity 😊.

Week 3
Week 3Tough week for week 3 of half marathon training slowly ramping it up with a lovely double session to start the week and a nice track session mid week definitely feel like my speed is getting there just need to work on cadence and form. Feeling a little achey to start the week with a little niggle but all part of training on tired legs. Bring on a new week of training!
Big thanks to my coach Morgan Thompson and to everyone who has supported me so fair whether that's sharing my posts or to those who have donated to my charity thank you very much 😊.
