Story
Just over a year ago, Daniel asked me to go running with him. As someone who couldn't even make it to the end of the street, I was skeptical. Undaunted Daniel persuaded me and, together, we did the couch to 5k program. Well, we started from the front door together and he overtook me on the way back. Together we found a way to not let our asthma stop us and motivated each other when it felt hard.
Growing up, I believed because I cannot sprint, I couldn't run. I hope the improved facilities will give RLS students the chance to find the sport that they CAN do and enjoy. Running this race will celebrate my realization that is never too late to learn - particularly from the young.
We're aiming to run 10km to help raise urgent funds for the Royal Latin School's Urgent Appeal for the Sports Campus! The run is part of the Virtual London 10K organised by London Marathon Events. It will be great to achieve something and help with this amazing project too. Thank you if you're able to support us in any way you can!
