My Story

I have somehow decided to run the Manchester Marathon in 12 weeks time! :) I am nervous about the crazy amount of mileage I need to do however I am looking forward to this challenge and there is no better time to do this than the year I turn 40! The reason i'm doing this for Adoption Focus is because of all the support they've provided for my brother Ryan & my sister in law Leela; with the adoption of their precious 2 daughters. Please see Ryan's comments below:

"18 months ago my wife and I were lucky to adopt 2 beautiful & delightful girls, 3 & 4 years old. It has been a relentless marathon journey but with support from family, friends and adoption focus it has made their journey possible. 

Please support my sister Lianne in raising money for the charity who supported us in adopting our beautiful girls, so that other children in temporary care and their parents can be united together quickly and forever. "
