I’m Sarah, the Chief Exec of Mencap Liverpool and back in January I signed up for this year’s Liverpool Marathon– it seemed a really good idea at the time!  Now it’s the middle of June and the marathon is less than 4 months away so it’s probably about time I got my act together.  I was really active (and smug) up until the end of March when I ran the half marathon, since then I’ve succumbed first to injury and then laziness having got out of the exercise habit.

Well today I’ve set up my fundraising page and tonight I’m going for my first training run so fingers crossed.  I’ll post a blog entry every so often so you can see how I’m getting on.

There’s a team of us who’ll be running it and a couple of us including me, are first-timers.  If you’d like to support us you can:

1. Sponsor us – visit the fundraising page here and/or
2. Cheer us along on the day- email me (sarah.jones@mencapliverpool.org.uk) for details or-
3. Join the team – we have a few charity places to give to people who agree to raise at least £250 in sponsorship for us.  Email me ( sarah.jones@mencapliverpool.org.uk)   if you’re interested or enter online
