Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris 2026 · 12 April 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

Supporting our amazing #TeamWish runners in the 2026 Paris Marathon

Story

On 12 April 2026, I will be taking on the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris, running 26.2 miles through one of the most beautiful cities in the world, in support of #TeamWish and the incredible charity When You Wish Upon A Star.

This wonderful charity helps make dreams come true for children living with life threatening illnesses, creating precious moments of joy and hope for both the children and their families during incredibly difficult times. Their work is truly inspiring, and it is the reason I have chosen to take on this challenge.

Training for a marathon is both physically and mentally demanding, but knowing that every mile I run will help support such a meaningful cause will keep me motivated throughout this journey.

I am aiming to raise £1,000 to help fulfill these dreams. If you are able to support my fundraising efforts, I would be extremely grateful. Every donation, no matter how big or small, helps make a child’s wish come true whether that is meeting their hero, visiting Lapland, or enjoying a truly magical day they will never forget.

Thank you so much for your kindness, encouragement, and generosity. Your support really does make a difference.
