Started running in 2002 to run the Race4Life in memory of a friend. Have now completed 169 marathons and ultras (including a 100 mile ultra) to raise money for Alzheimer's Research UK in memory of my mum. I blog at www.extremeknittingredhead.blogspot.co.uk and my current fund-raising page is https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/extremeknittingredhead
