Story

I am really disappointed, but due to a ski injury in February this year, I have had to defer my marathon place to 2024. I am now on a mission to fully recover, run faster and raise even more money by next April. Thank you for your support and donations. 

I have already raised my fundraising target twice, due to the amount of support from my friends and colleagues, and will continue to do so and raise as much money as I can. 

In the Summer of 2022 we lost the most incredible man, our Dad to bowel cancer. Dad ran 3 London marathons and told me he would help me train whenever I decided to do one. After watching my Dad and Sister run the London Marathon a few times  I knew it was something I always wanted to achieve. 

Dad was always there at every cross country race and athletics meeting cheering me on, telling me when to sprint and when to push harder. Even though he isn’t here to help me train I know he will be there in spirit through it all. 

Please donate and help me raise my fundraising target to help fund research into bowel cancer and help prevent one more person from this awful disease.
