Challenge completed!

Hello Hannah, would you like to tell us a bit about yourself?

I’m Hannah and I’m 31 from Yorkshire working in the outskirts of London. I thought I’d do something positive in 2019 and challenge myself to do 12 events in 12 months (due to scheduling my last challenge had to be in early January 2020).

Why did you choose to raise money for FARA Charity?

This particular charity is close to my heart. I appreciate what I have and saw this as a great opportunity to give something back. I also sponsor a child in Romania each month through SOS Children.

What made you want to take on 12 Events in one year, and can you tell us what they all were?

I thought trying to achieve 12 events in a year, one per month, was a good goal and might encourage more support; rather than doing just one in the year. And I’m mindful that a half marathon is my limit!
