I had my life changed by triathlon just over one year ago, and it became a huge part of my day to day.

However, this is a sport that demands a lot of time and investment, which makes it inaccessible to a lot of people. Considering that women are traditionally economically disadvantaged in comparison to men and that women represent less than 32% of athletes in the British Triathlon Federation, Fund Her Tri UK has the mission of sponsoring triathlon entries, hosting workshops and fostering a very inclusive and collaborative community to close the gender gap in triathlon.

Along with other members of the FHTUK community, I am running my first marathon in April to raise funds to bring more women to tri in 2024!

And not just any marathon (if you dare call the event of running 42km "any" anything!), but London Marathon, one of the World Marathon Majors. It's a huge challenge and an amazing opportunity to accomplish something that is in equal measure difficult and beautiful!

Please consider donating any amount to my fundraiser, and leave words of encouragement that I can write all over my arms to keep my feet going as I run across London on 21 April!
