Story
Hello, and welcome to my TCS London Marathon #TeamHDA fundraising page. 👋
I'm Katy Steptoe 😊 and I'm donning some running shoes and pounding the pavement for 26.2miles at the London Marathon 2026. 🏃♀️
💡Am I a runner? No
💡Have I lost my mind? Also no...
My life is personally impacted by a neurodegenerative condition called Huntington's Disease. This condition affects 8,000 people across England and Wales and not only affects the cognitive abilities, mobility, and personality of the person living with the condition, but it has a life long impact on those who help, care and support people living with HD.
So, in order to raise awareness of this condition I am putting myself to the test, digging deep and accomplishing a huge challenge, in order to raise well deserved funds for the HDA charity, who support those living with and affected by Huntington's disease across England and Wales. The work they do helps provide education, support, advice, and clinical research to better the lives of those affected by HDA, and I am beyond proud to be a part of #TeamHDA for London 2026.
So, follow my training progress, hear more about my story and provide your support for a charity that personally impacts both my life and the lives of my loved ones and show your support for #TeamHDA! 👊❤️
