From Smoker to Tip-Top Athlete


Hi I’m Karen.

I am married with four children and have lived and worked in the Lancaster area all my life. In 2006, after 25 years, I finally saw the light and gave up smoking.

During the next 8 months I gained 2 ½ stone in weight. I thought I better do something about it so I started walking. After a while it was walking and jogging. Then finally jogging.

Nearly seven years later here I am running in the 2013 London Marathon to raise money for the Rossendale Trust. Please help me by clicking the link below.
