Story
I’m running my first half marathon this October to raise money for epilepsy research, awareness, and support!
In 2024, I experienced several life-altering seizures that changed my perspective on my life. As someone young and otherwise healthy, I thought I could just ignore my diagnosis. But losing complete control of my body was terrifying. It forced me to slow down, not train for a while, and reevaluate my day to day actions.
Now, after months of adapting and healing, I finally feel strong and stable enough to train for something I once thought was out of reach. This half marathon is more than just a physical challenge — it’s a symbol of reclaiming my body.
I’m running for myself, but also for all the other YOUNG people living with epilepsy — many of whom face daily struggles in silence.
If you’re able to, I’d be incredibly grateful for your support. Whether it’s £5 or £100, every donation makes a difference.
Thank you so much for being part of this with me.
