Severn Hospice physiotherapist Sally Baguley is encouraging fellow running enthusiasts to join her and take on the Lake Vyrnwy Half Marathon on Sunday 11th September.
The hospice is calling for supporters in Shropshire to run the half marathon in the beautiful setting of Lake Vyrnwy and raise money so that they can continue to care for patients and families living with incurable illnesses.
Sally said of her upcoming challenge: “I’ve never done this much running before but I thought I needed a challenge and have heard people say that Lake Vyrnwy Half Marathon is a great way to ease into running longer distances. It’s a popular event so I’m fortunate I got my place through Severn Hospice.
“I work at Severn Hospice, so every day I see the huge difference that the care that the team provides makes to people’s lives. I would encourage anyone who wants to make an important difference and has some experience running to get involved!”
Once you have registered, you will receive a fundraising pack and a Severn Hospice running vest to wear on the day. If you are already registered, you can still raise funds through your sponsorship for Severn Hospice.
Registration for the Lake Vyrnwy Half Marathon is free; however participants are asked to raise a minimum of £125.00 in sponsorship.
