Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders (MSF) is the world's leading medical humanitarian aid organisation.

I am definitely not a natural runner but I really wanted to push myself to do something I knew I’d find hard!!

I also wanted this to have a wider impact to not only help to make a small change in the world but also to motivate me to train for my half marathon alongside my studies. MSF is a charity I’m really interested in as a medical student and their work is really important in the provision of emergency assistance to those affected by conflict, epidemics and disasters.

All donations will be going to Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders and every contribution will make a difference.
