Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 

I am running my first ever Half Marathon on the 4th March which starts around Tower Bridge and finishes at the Cutty Sark.

I am running this because Teddy’s younger brother Marcus was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy last year. Please take the time to watch his family's story on the following link:

Prior to this I have never run before and started training last year. I never thought I could do this but knowing that Marcus will soon lose the ability to walk and run breaks my heart. He is the most amazing little brother who is always smiling. I am doing this to try and raise money for the charity who are supporting Andy, Marie and Marcus through this. Any amount that you can spare means a lot.

I hope I do you all proud!

Thanks
