Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running the London Marathon in honour of my friend Emily, who sadly died from complications arising from Type 1 diabetes, aged 29, last year.

She had set herself a goal to run the marathon by the time she was 30, so in her honour a group of family and friends will be running it for her.

Now saying I've never been sporty is an understatement, but Emily was always challenging herself, so with her as my inspiration I'm willing to be set myself this huge challenge in support of Diabetes UK.
