I’m running this marathon in the hope of raising vital funds to support research into lupus. Having witnessed first-hand the devastating effects this condition can have, I know how urgently better treatments—and ultimately a cure—are needed. This run is deeply personal to me, driven by the determination to help make a difference where I can. I’m running for Chloe, and for everyone whose lives are affected by lupus, with the hope that continued research will bring understanding, relief, and one day a cure.
