Last year I completed the race and raised over £180 for Cancer Reserch UK. This year I am aiming to meet, or hopefully better, this target.

The Southampton Race For Life comprises a 5km lap around the Common and down the Avenue. If you know anything about Southampton, the site of 10,000 women running down the Avenue has to be seen to be believed!

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cancer Research UK will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. Please give as much, or as little, as you feel you are capable of donating, be that 10p, £1, £10, or more. Please sponsor me now. And pass on the link to your friends and family, so they can sponsor me as well :)

If there is anyone you would like me to run for, then just comment when you donate, or email me and I'll add them to my back sign. If you'd like to be kept up to date on how my training is going, to learn more about why I am doing this, or if you're just curious, please go to my blog which can be found at http://brightmeadow.co.uk

Many thanks for your support, and if you happen to be in Southampton on July 16th, look out for me - I 'd definitely appreciate someone standing there with a bottle of water!
