Dear friends, I can’t believe I’m only a few days away now from the London Marathon!
Thank you so much for all your support over the last few months, it means so much! I’m so close to my fundraising target now- any donations are very very gratefully received! I’ve been checking in a lot more on Instagram, just fyi, where you can find me xx https://2023tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/pf/samantha-walker-3d095?fbclid=PAAaafnapO0BrEUdYvXVbBn6Hh-ew_GDAXuKWc5Jz3DWtpnM93WAriqpFfclo

What a morning! I did it!! 🙌 A few months ago I could never have dreamed that I could run 14 miles!! It’s been a long, slow road, and I have a long way to go, but the London Marathon start line is not far away - eep! Thank you for all your support - link below if you could spare a quid for Breast Cancer Now I would so so appreciate it! Now the small matter of a flight back to England- see you in Manchester! 🐝 ❤️
