Story

Thanks for supporting my fundraising!

When Macmillan contacted me to offer me a place in the London Marathon 2026 I was apprehensive but knew I couldn’t pass on this opportunity. So, whilst I always said I would never do a marathon… here we are!

I am throwing myself into something that feels very out of my reach but I am determined (and stubborn!!) and ready to try something that will be tricky, that will be a challenge and that will push me out of my comfort zone. We can do hard things!!

On Sunday 26th April 2026 I will be running the London Marathon!!!

I have chosen to fundraise for Macmillan Cancer Support, a charity that many people will know of and many people will have experiences of using one of their services. Macmillan are fantastic at just being there, for listening to and taking on your worries and for making a tricky time that little bit easier through the support they give. Macmillan nurses supported, listened to and guided Mum through some uncertain moments and provided some glimmers of light during a not so bright time.

None of this can happen without the money they receive through fundraising... which is where you come in! I would be so grateful if you would sponsor me, to encourage me to get through the next months of training in the run up to the big (BIG) event!

Thank you, so much!
