I’ve been really hesitant to look back at the goals I set myself for 2017, as the year has flown by so quickly with no real sense of achievement other than feeling stressed, exhausted and like I haven’t really given any thing my all. I’ve done lots, but there has been a real sense of lack of fun and fulfilment. I’m hoping that with another challenge in my sights and the hopes of something different in work that 2018 could be a better year, and also having a refocus on family and friends, and being calmer and more present mum and friend will help too. So for 2018, the goals are: 1. Run, run, run - I signed up to Bath Half Marathon, after promising myself to give up running, but the running bug got me and the challenge of raising some more dosh for#cancerresearch, I would do another week of madness leading up to #bathhalf. As well as doing some running challenges every month of the year - January (@mindcharity RED - run every day); Feb (10k in Greenwich park); March (bath half and Cardiff bay 10k); April (Newport 10k); May (tbc); June (Swansea half); July (race for life with mia and lils); august (Barry island 10k); sept (Cardiff 10k); Oct and nov (tbc) and dec (Santa jog). Not much....worth a bit of dosh for #cancerresearch https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/leyniepearn 2. Read 40 books - last year I managed 35, but wanted to up the target and read more of an eclectic mix. 3. Spend more time with family and friends - I’m planning a 2 week break in August to travel round the country visiting family, and I’m trying to be a better friend and not forget to text back and remember birthdays, and spend time with you all and do nice things with my two lovely munchkins and hubby, and be the person I am, but gets lost in busy-ness and day to day rubbish!!! 4. Be kinder to myself. Think this could be the toughest one. I’m my worst enemy and my toughest critic. I saw something posted on Facebook about “action for happiness” calendar, which I’m determined to follow. I’ll let you know how I get on. Hope you all have a fab 2018 and reach your potential and live your dreams xxx

Would anyone be able to donate any amount to Bath Cats and Dogs Home. I shall be running my first half marathon next year on their behalf. They care so well for their animals and my family have had so many successful adoptions from them 😊

Bath Half
The Bath Half Marathon (which is now also known as the "Vitality Bath Half Marathon") is an annual road running half marathon held in Bath, England. It has been held every year since 1981, normally on the second or third Sunday in March. The race was first run in the year after the first London Marathon in 1980 and has remained a popular race for runners preparing for the London Marathon. Since 2015 the race has been sponsored by Vitality.

It is the largest single day charity fundraising event in South West England, raising over £2 million for charity in 2014. I photographed the event one year for work experience so that the organisation and charity would have a dynamic and artistic image of the bath half that could be used for advertisement on a billboard or the website.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step!
My mum died in May 2015 from Cancer, and although I don't think she knew she had cancer, her body was riddled with it. She wasn't ill for very long (about two months), she was diagnosed with breast, lung, liver and bone cancer and died two days later.
Last year I raised over £2,000 for Cancer Research by completing a week of madness (7 events in 7 days, including 2 half marathons), and it was all down to the amazing generosity of family, friends and even people I didn't know that kept me going. The whole thing was physically and not to mention emotionally draining, but it helped me to grieve and feel like I was doing something to honour my mum, who I miss terribly.
Since I did this last year, there have been so many people who are close to me (family, friends and colleagues) that have been affected by Cancer, and £2,000 just isn't enough to keep searching for a cure and to provide support for those affected.
Cancer is everywhere and if I can do my small part to help fund research to stop someone losing a loved one then that makes me feel better, so please help me to do that....
I realised that I needed to do something bigger and more challenging to raise money. So I'm not going to lie, I have obviously done a half marathon before, but a secret that you may not know is that I REALLY don't like running, it is a challenge for me....
So my plan is: 1) 200 miles in 100 days (that's either 2 miles a day, or 14 miles a week) - I work full time, I've got 2 children,  and as anyone close to me will tell you, I'm rather a busy person and it's winter so it's dark and miserable all the time! - So that's challenge 1
2) Challenge 2 - Bath Half Marathon - not the flattest of cities! And pure and unadulterated training to get an under 2 hours time! Something I've tried my hardest to achieve and never have!
3) 9 days worth of challenges to get to the Bath Half Marathon - this time including loved ones, friends and anyone else willing to take part! Saturday 25th Feb - Sunday 4th March
So far on the 8 day list is:
A 10k run from work with anyone who'll join me!                                            A climb up Pen Y Fan                                                                                             Ice skating - Mia's choice                                                                                      And I'm hoping to organise a paid for clubercise / zumba / insanity work out - if I can get someone to help us out with this!                                 4 other things - yet to be decided                                                                       Finishing with Bath Half Marathon on Sunday 4th March
This will all be supplemented by cake sales, sweepstakes, and anything else to help raise money for this very important cause.
Thank you so much for helping to eradicate Cancer and helping me to remember my Mum and do my bit.
