We are Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity. We stop at nothing to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. Because we believe no childhood should be lost to illness.

Story

Well after a blood test at the doctors surgery on the 1/09/2021, I was diagnosed type 2 diabetes I was about 14 stone 5lbs, BMI 30+, cholesterol was high and blood pressure was high but not dangerously but not great nonetheless and I was prescribed 4 tablets for diabetes and cholesterol. 

Determined I was going to reverse this i started walking a lot targeting 8000 steps a day and reduced calories to around 800 per day, i am now at a lot healthier weight being 11 stone after 3 months, and eating a lot healthier.

About a 6-8 weeks ago I started running so still a novice but feeling a lot fitter, now am able to run 5 and 10k, and felt I could now push on to a 1/2 Marathon.

I have now signed up for the London Landmarks 1/2 Marathon in April 2022, and started a 16 week running program to prepare me.
