From mum to marathon!

I’m doing this to raise money and awareness for sickle cell, something deeply personal to me and my family.

I have family members living with sickle cell, and during my pregnancy with Havana I found out I carry the sickle cell trait.

I’m no runner! The furthest I’d ever run was a 5k for charity in 2024 and before last week I hadn’t run at all.

With the help of Runna planning my training and Strava I’m taking this one step at a time.

I’ve always dreamed of running a marathon, I just didn’t think now would be the time. But when you’re sat at a table in Blackpool with people who believe in you more than you believe in yourself… here we are.

This is just the beginning 🤍
