Story

After years of watching the London Marathon on TV and following people I know, last year I entered,  not thinking for a moment that I'd get a ballot place. 

In March, I was working from home, recovering from covid when I got the email- I won't lie, I felt sick, and it took weeks before I was ready to admit it to people. But here we are, I've been training, I've set up a Facebook page, so now it's time for some fundraising. 

Before we had our two beautiful daughters we lost two babies to Miscarriage.   It totally broke me. 

The Miscarriage Association and their local support group helped to put me back together and get through the early stages of my pregnancy with Eleanor and I will be forever grateful.
