The London Marathon has always been a pipe dream of mine - every year always thinking "I'd love to do that, but don't think I ever will". Well this year, not only have I got a place raising money for an incredible charity, Macmillan Cancer Support, but I also aim to run the Edinburgh Marathon in May. 

Macmillan Cancer Support have unfortunately helped too many of my family members. Both of my parents have used their incredible service as well as my late uncle. Cancer is horrible - it affects so many people. So knowing there are places like Macmillan who have been so brilliant for those closest to me, felt the right charity for me to run for. 

Having given birth in January 2023 via emergency c-section, struggling with ongoing back issues, recovering from plantar fasciitis, and never having run further than 10km this will be a HUGE challenge for me both physically and emotionally. As well as being a huge challenge for my family whilst they hear about my complaining!
