Ever since I can remember I’ve ridden horses, whether riding around the family farm in Northumberland, attending pony club or competing in local events. Horses are my every day.
I recently took part in my first amateur horse race at Wetherby Racecourse, the training for this race was intense and through this training I developed a passion for running.
I am running the Great North Run this year (my first ever half marathon) and I wanted to combine my two passions, running and horses.
I’m running in aid of Here4Horses as this charity and the work they do is very close to my heart.
The charity is run entirely by volunteers, so anything you are able to give, goes directly to the care of the rescued horses and ponies.
Thank you.
