Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am taking part in the 2023 London Marathon to raise money for St John Ambulance after their volunteers came to my rescue after I collapsed with heat stroke near mile 25 of the 2021 London Marathon.

It had always been my dream to run the London Marathon. I'd watched the action on TV every year when I was growing up and I am hoping to lay some demons to rest by finishing what I started in 2021 and cross the finish line in April 2023.
