Story

Hello everyone,

I will be running the Paris Half Marathon this March. This will be my very first half-marathon. Attempting such a thing just after turning 47 is, let’s say, an interesting life choice… so please keep your fingers crossed that I actually make it to the finish line.

On the bright side, this is also a good opportunity to do some good. If you would like to support the cause, you can contribute through this page to Heart UK, which does amazing work.

Every contribution will help a great cause—and will also give me extra motivation to keep running when I start questioning my decisions somewhere around kilometre 15 :)

Let’s run then! 🏃‍♂️
