A supervisor at a local advice charity has committed to running three long distance races to raise money for Citizens Advice Flintshire.
Sara Jones, who has been with the service for 5 years wants to raise funds to help Flintshire residents access advice and deal with the effects of the Cost of Living Crisis.
Despite running to keep fit most of her adult life, Sara has never entered an organised race but felt this would be a good way of pushing her limits whilst raising money for a cause close to her heart: “I’ve been running a few miles, three times a week for the past 15 years but avoided organised events because the thought of so many runners is quite daunting. Now that I’ve made my intentions clear to friends, family and colleagues, I’m not only committed to all three races but to the challenging training regimes that comes with them.” She went on to say: “It’s crucial that as many people as possible have access to advice that could make a huge difference this coming year; our fundraising efforts help us continue to provide this vital service.”
Sara’s first event will be the Chester 10k on March 12th, followed by a half marathon in May and a metric marathon in October.
