Story
On the 2nd October 2022 I will be running the London Marathon!!!! This was never part of my plan but as I do every year I entered the ballot and for the first year ever I got in so who was I to say no! Its by far my biggest running challenge to date having set myself the target of two half marathons this year thinking that would be more than enough! I want to use the marathon as a chance to continue to raise more vital funds and awareness of my wonderful friends charity - The Dorothy Aromando Art Fund.
Each year in the UK alone around 5000 people die from exposure to asbestos, many of whose have no idea where they were exposed but the reality is asbestos is all around us. Mesothelioma is a rare cancer associated with asbestos and sadly there is no cure,. The Dorothy Aromando Art Fund was founded in 2015 by Susie Aromando in memory of her mother. DAAF is a registered charity (1169871) that raises awareness and funds towards research into a cure and specialist nurses that need outside funding in hospitals through Mesothelioma UK.

2 years agoI did it!!! I won’t lie it was incredibly tough, the weather forecast on Saturday was rain which I was secretly pleased about as I’m not great at running in the heat but the sun came out and zapped everything I had. The last 6 miles were a real struggle! I cannot begin to describe what an incredible experience it was! The crowds were insane and I loved spotting Mum, Dad, Hannah, Steve and Mark in the crowd! They gave me the much needed boosts to keep going! I’m incredibly grateful to everyone for their generosity for this wonderful charity 💚

2 years agoWell this wasn’t the best prep for a marathon! An unplanned dismount from my horse with just over a week to go until the big day! Luckily no damage done! It’s exactly 2 years to the day today that I broke both of my legs…hard to believe that 2 years ago I couldn’t get out of bed for weeks and had to learn to walk all over again and in a few days time I’ll be running for 26 miles. The body is an amazing thing and I’m proud of the grit and determination it’s taken to get me to this point. London Marathon I’m coming for you 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
