Ten years ago Ruth's mum was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. We are thrilled to be given the opportunity to run the London Marathon 2017 and raise funds for Parkinson's UK an amazing charity which supports people like my her and is working to find a cure for this cruel condition.

Lyn (Mum) is an amazing lady who lives with this condition on a daily basis with bravery and dignity and above all positivity. We are both very proud to run in her name.
