Ten years ago we ran 7km around Blenheim when Ella was just 8. This year to celebrate Ella turning 18 we are hoping to complete the 26.2m London Marathon together. Our fitness levels are quite opposite to say the least so it could be a challenge to stay the distance together but we'll support each other all the way (until Ella sprints for the finish line - again!)

Helen and Douglas House is a charity based in our home town of Oxford providing support to terminally ill children and their families. We can't imagine how awful it would be to be such a family needing help but every little we can raise will make a difference to those whose lives are affected by illness. If you could spare any amount to help Helen and Douglas House with their work we, and they, would be so very grateful. 

We'll try to post training updates but for now thank you so much for your support - hope to see some of you on the 28th April in London

Ella and Jane xx
