Story

Cancer has changed my life in ways I never expected.

I am watching people I love so much fight battles that no one should ever have to face — battles full of fear, pain, and impossible strength.

When everything felt overwhelming, I turned to running.

I started lacing up my trainers as a way to cope with the stress, the fear, and the heartbreak of seeing the people I love suffer. Running became my outlet — a way to process the helplessness and sadness that I didn’t know what else to do with.

Now, I want to turn that personal journey into something bigger.

I’m running the London Marathon 2026 for Worldwide Cancer Research — not just for myself, but for them. For my dad. For every family who’s sat in a waiting room, praying for good news. For every person who's woken up wondering how they’ll get through another day.

Worldwide Cancer Research is fighting every single day to create better treatments, earlier diagnoses, and real hope. They are giving families like mine something to cling to. Something to believe in.

Sponsoring me isn’t just about helping me run 26.2 miles — it’s about standing up to cancer.

It’s about turning pain into progress.

It’s about making sure one day, fewer families have to live this nightmare.

This marathon is my way of fighting back.

It’s personal. It’s emotional. And every mile will be run with love, grief, hope, and determination burning in my heart.

Please stand with me.

Let’s run together towards a future where cancer doesn’t win.
