I don't run. I have never run, not even for a bus. So me deciding to do a marathon is insane. Literally, never expected to in my lifetime. 

But when the opportunity to walk a marathon came up, I couldn't really say no. It's for charity (and a really good one at that!) There's a bunch of us and we're going to get through it together. It might take us all day (scratch that, it definitely will take us all day!) but we are going to raise money and have a good time doing it!

Stop Hate UK is one of the leading national organisations working to challenge all forms of Hate Crime and discrimination, based on any aspect of an individual’s identity. They provide independent, confidential and accessible reporting and support for victims, witnesses and third parties.Hate Crime is one of the most underreported crimes in the UK and, whilst we know that reported incidents are on the rise, we also know that the number of actual incidents is way in excess of those reported.
