As I lace up my running shoes once again and prepare to start my training for the Berlin Marathon 2024, I am filled with a sense of purpose and determination.

This year, I am proud to be fundraising for THE CHRISTIE CHARITY, an organisation that is close to my heart. The work they do in the fight against cancer is truly inspiring, and I am committed to doing my part to support that.

Every step I take during both my training and on the marathon day itself is not just a massive personal challenge, but also an opportunity to raise awareness and funds for a cause that affects so many. The Christie Charity supported my friend Janet in her battle against lung cancer, my son’s friend when he was diagnosed with sarcoma at the age of 21 and it continues to support people today who mean so much to me.

Be in no doubt, your support will mean the world and will absolutely keep me going during those 26.2 miles as it has done on my previous marathon challenges. It means so much on the day, knowing you have support, people are willing you round and have donated to support a fantastic cause

I would be hugely grateful for anything you can donate. Your donation will directly benefit their efforts and bring us closer to a future free from the burden of cancer.

Thank you ☺️💕
