Story

Running 1 marathon in a year apparently wasn’t enough! In April 2024 I will be taking on my biggest (+final 🤞🏼) marathon challenges. I will be running the Brighton Marathon, 7th April, followed by the London Marathon, 21st April, 2 weeks later!

Although I might be slightly crazy I am running for a very special cause so it feels all in all like an incredible experience. Diabetes UK undertake some integral research into both Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes. Their innovation and support helps individuals, like my boyfriend, Tom, improve not only their day-to-day lives but their future. Putting myself through the next 7 months (and two tricky weeks!) is nothing in comparison to their daily struggles. Please be patient with me and my marathon training again, any donations would be greatly appreciated, and recovery tips 🏃🏼‍♀️
