I`ve been selected to the Action for A-T team running the London marathon to raise charity.

During the past12 years, running has become a major part of who I am. I also completed a long distance running instructor course to be able to pass on the passion I have for running to others. 

Running has helped me keep healthy, lose weight, stay focused and improve myself. Every year I set a goal to achieve and I push my self to reach it. This year I'm running to help children with A-T.

London will be my 13th marathon, and a first raising funds for an important cause. I`m excited and training seriously. Preparation will demand many hours, hundreds of kilometers, sweat and continuous effort but surely nothing physical can compare to the challenge's that A-T families face.

A-T is a devastating condition that affects different body systems in children. Further investment into A-T research is urgently required as there is currently no treatment or cure. Your generous donation is worth more than its value, it also provides hope.

Please support Action for A-T :

• £15 could fund an hour`s worth of PHD student research;
• £25 could fund an hour`s worth of laboratory research;
• £50 could provide vital laboratory supplies to help find a treatment or cure for A-T;
• £100 could fund a day`s research by a post-doctoral researcher
