In September 2022, I received some blood test results that pointed to a possible genetic condition. In December, it was confirmed that I had Klinefelter's syndrome, so rather than being XY, I am XXY. It affects 1 in 650 men, yet neither of us had ever heard of it.

There are many symptoms of this condition that now I have a diagnosis can hopefully be improved. A big one that we've both been getting our heads round is that we will likely never have any biological children. This is news that no one ever wants to hear, but we certainly didn't expect to hear it in our 20s before we'd even properly thought about starting a family.

Lucy's way of coping with anything is always running. She entered the ballot for the Royal Parks Half Marathon in October and decided that if she was successful, I would run it for KSA - so here we are! Lucy and I also wanted to do something together, so we are both taking part in the 25km ultra peak challenge in July.

We want to raise money for research into this condition, and we want to raise awareness of it too - Klinefelter's Syndrome isn't rare, but it is rarely diagnosed.

Any support and donations will be greatly received!
