A Darlington business woman is going the extra mile by running her first marathon for charity.
Charlotte Nichols, managing director of Darlington PR firm Harvey and Hugo, is hoping to raise money for Asthma UK by running the Edinburgh marathon on 31st May.
Charlotte said: “After taking part in the Great North Run last year, I’m really excited to take the next step by running a marathon. It’ll be tough, but definitely worth it”.
Charlotte is hoping to raise money for Asthma UK, a charity helping over 5 million people who suffer from asthma in the UK.
She added: “I’ve lost a friend to asthma so it’s a cause that’s very close to my heart. I really hope I can raise enough funds to reach my goal of £500.”
The fitness mad PR guru, has always recognised the value that keeping active has, especially to people in business.
Charlotte said: “Running is a great release, especially for busy people working long hours.
Everyone needs something to help de-stress and clear your mind, especially in business.”
With over 30,000 runners taking part, the Edinburgh Marathon promises to be a great event, with lots of worthy causes.
