I ran my first marathon last year - Brighton. I really enjoyed all the training and discipline involved. The race was tough but a great, emotional and fun experience. I enjoyed it all so much I’ve decided to it again this year! 

I did a big push last year to raise money for my chosen charity. This year I was just going to run without raising anything, however having thought it through it seems such a waste not to use this opportunity to raise money for charity, especially considering the amount of time and effort that training for a marathon takes.  This year  I’ve decided to raise money for the Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity. 

The Rainbow Trust  are a small Surrey based charity that support families with sick children.
