#runneroftheweek - Krystina Jobson

Are you still in touch with your best friend from school? Well, Krystina certainly is and she is pulling out all the stops to thank us on behalf of old schoolmate Kerri Sherwin. 

Kerri and partner Dan stayed in Acorn House when their son, Henley, underwent emergency brain surgery at just a few days old - miles away from home. 

On Kerri's behalf, Krystina has raised over £1000 already through her Royal Parks Half Marathon sponsorship and by holding a bake off last week. 

Well done Krystina and thank you for all your support! 

#toptip: "It’s all in your mind, being mentally prepared is half the battle. Get yourself out there and think positively whilst you are running, your legs can do the rest!"

Good luck!
