I’m taking on the Mega Miles Challenge in support of the Charity for Civil Servants.

The Charity for Civil Servants supports current, former and retired civil servants when they face tough times.  From mental health struggles and financial assistance to relationship issues, getting through grief, and coping with disability, they’re here to help people stay strong, whatever life brings.

They’ve been there for civil servants for over 137 years, providing an umbrella of support when it’s needed most and so I'm fundraising to make sure they can be there for future generations too.

If I can do it anyone can

Monday 20th May
I am 42, was overweight and self confessed lazy! Back in October 23 a few colleagues decided to get "fit for Christmas"; downloaded Couch to 5k app (again!) and off I went, 1st few weeks were good, then the weather changed, the frost came in and it was tough but the run's got longer the better I felt!
I completed my final run 23rd December and have carried on since! I signed up for Parkrun, number 8 was ran on Saturday and now running 5k in 30 mins (approx!!) and have lost nearly 2 stone and dropped a dress size!
If you are thinking of doing it, do - if I can anyone can!
