Run Amy Run!
Amy's marathon challenge
I’m Amy, mum of 2 boys and an I.M.P.S. co-ordinator. I’ve been working for I.M.P.S. since 2011 so I know how special this charity really is.
I.M.P.S. offers such a unique and essential experience to so many year 6 children which is why it needs to be funded for the future.
I started running/plodding along in 2013 after challenging myself to complete the couch to 5k plan and I’ve never looked back.
I have been threatening to take up one of our golden bond marathon places for years and with my 40th birthday coming up I decided this was the year!
Training is going well and I have been met with some challenges, but with the support of my family and friends I have been improving and lengthening my runs.
I am doing this as a challenge to myself but mainly to raise money and awareness of the amazing work that I.M.P.S. does.
Look out for me on Sunday 28th April, my race number is 38249.
I WILL get over that finish line and get my medal, there’s just a small matter of 26.2 miles through London standing in my way.
Support me or one of my fellow I.M.P.S. runners if you can by making a donation.
UPDATE:
I did it! I raised over £1700 for I.M.P.S. and had an amazing day. It was certainly a once in a lifetime experience and well worth all of the time and effort. I can now say that I ran a marathon and I am super proud of myself and the rest of the I.M.P.S. London Marathon 2019 team!
