Stephanie, 18 (Feb<strong>2010</strong>), lost a very dear friend to her at the<br />
young age of 18 from meningitis. Stephanie decided that as soon<br />
as she turned 18 and was old enough she would run in her<br />
friend's memory for a charity close to heart. "Thommy was the<br />
most genuine and outgoing person who never failed to make me<br />
laugh. It is obvious that I had to do something for her and I know<br />
that she will keep me motivated and determined to complete he<br />
marathon."<br />
