I've been running for almost four years now and have been fortunate enough to get a London Marathon place through my running club, Bracknell Forest Runners. I have a love/hate relationship with distance running and although this marathon is going to be a real challenge, it has also been a long time dream. It’s the city I grew up in and arguably the greatest race in the world! I volunteered on the course last year and had the most amazing day cheering and being inspired by all the runners. Now I am really looking forward to experiencing it from the other side. 

I want to use the opportunity to try and raise funds for Mosac, a charity that helps parents and families at a time when they may feel like their world is falling apart. If you feel you’d like to make a small donation to support their work, it would be gratefully received.
