In 2024 I pushed myself way out of my comfort zone & ran the London Marathon in memory of Mum, who we tragically lost in 2023 to a short but brutal battle with CNS (brain) lymphoma.

Through this I formed a special relationship with running as a connection to her, & last year ran the Manchester Marathon with my best friend James, to whom, my lovely Mum was like a second mother.

This year, my journey continues & I am taking on the Brighton Marathon.

We’ve raised over £15,000 for Lymphoma action through this journey & I’d love to keep supporting them whilst doing something that helps me to grieve & feel close to my Mum in a way that I find hard in normal life.

My goal is now to run 10 marathons in 10 years & raise as much money as I can to support this wonderful charity along the way.

Bring on Brighton. This is for you Mamma Lion ❤️ 🦁 🏃‍♀️

Lymphoma Action is the UK’s only charity dedicated to lymphoma, the fifth most common cancer.

We’ve been providing in-depth, expert information and wide-ranging support for over 30 years, helping thousands of people affected by lymphoma. Our work drives improvements in the diagnosis, treatment, and aftercare of lymphoma.

We’re here for everyone affected by lymphoma. https://lymphoma-action.org.uk/
