Running London Landmarks Half Marathon in memory of our son Archie
Valerie Middleton is raising money for Tommy’s, the pregnancy and baby charity
Story
It has definitely been a journey testing determination at every stage.
My just giving page initially read as below back in 2019:
In March 2020, I will be taking on the massive challenge of running the London Landmarks Half Marathon.
Those of you who know me well, know I am definitely not a natural runner. LLHM is a huge challenge for me but one that I am determined to complete in memory of our precious son ‘Archie’.
Archie was stillborn in January 2013, and will be forever part of our hearts. Crossing the line in March seeing Stuart, Henry and Emily at the other side will be the image that will get me through.
By sponsoring me, u would really be helping me over the line whilst donating to an invaluable charity. However small the amount, every penny will go to Tommy’s to help others in the future.
Thank you for your support x
It really has been a journey since 2019: covid times, race cancellations and my own health challenges. Finally I have a LLHM race date in London Sunday 2nd April 2023! 😀
Although I ran the 1/2 locally in Stone during covid times officially receiving the finishers medal, I was committed from the outset to run over the finish line in London and I will for sure. I will be running over the line for ‘Archie’ ❤️.
Any further sponsorship will be invaluable to help me over the line. My fitness is definitely not what it was but I am determined to make it over the line whether I run, walk or even crawl. Whatever it takes!
I will be doing everything I can over the next 8 weeks to be race ready in memory of Archie as well as raise invaluable funds for Tommys and families the charity supports.
As always I cannot thank you all enough for all your support 🥰
