I am fundraising for The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association
I have chosen Guide Dogs for my 2013-2020 charity. My Dad became partially sighted several years ago and had to retire early. After passing his assessment my Dad is now on the waiting list for a guide dog {Barnie joined the family in late 2015}.This has given me a real appreciation of the all the hard work that this charity does and I wanted to do something to raise some much needed funds and also to raise awareness.
Due to ill health, injuries and family matters I have not been able to get back into a consistent training plan (until now - fingers crossed).
I will be starting out on my venture again soon, I have a journey to go on to get back to where I was and then some.
I also hope to burn off the weight that I put on over the past few years so I will be losing weight and running miles for the next 23 months ( I wonder what happens in 2020
). Thank you, The Wombling Plodder

"If you run, you are a runner. It doesn't matter how fast or how far. It doesn't matter if today is your first day or if you've been running for twenty years. There is no test to pass, no license to earn, no membership card to get. You just run."
